I live in an area in the U.S. that is very right wing. Our publicly elected sheriff burns a cross before election season. Normally we have a very wet spring. It rained twice this spring. It rained once again in June, and again a few weeks ago. We have had record breaking temperatures all summer. Where we normally have several feet of snowfall, this winter we had inches. People complain about the weather we're having and I look them in the eye and say, "Climate change." Then their eyes widen and they look scared and don't say anything. Not a single one. They know it, but they can't accept it.
