Little by little, bit by bit climate change and its implications are being normalized.

Daniel Griffin - California's
drought is the 'worst'.

When was it drier, when was it hotter or when was the storm fiercer?

In the mode of populist thinking there was always a moment in history when it was hotter, drier or fiercer, but close examination will reveal the fallacy of such thinking.

And Daniel Griffin was one of those disbelievers, or at least one who questioned claims that California’s drought was the worst ever, until he looked closely at the facts.

Scientific American explains - “California's Drought May Be Worst in a Millennium” - how the assistant professor in the Department of Geography, Environment and Society at the University of Minnesota used his skills to prove the claims correct.
