...storms. But the Nature paper argues that warmer sea-surface temperatures will result in stronger storms, because hotter oceans mean the developing storms can draw more warm air, which powers the storm. "Hurricanes are driven by the transfer of energy from the ocean to the atmosphere," says Kerry Emanuel, a meterologist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. "As water warms, the ability of water to evaporate goes up, and a greater evaporation rate will produce a more intense hurricane...
...degrees C by 2100, those are scary calculations. It's especially worrying because the most intense storms do the most damage by far - several minor storms can equal the damage of a single severe hurricane. "The category 1 or 2 storms don't do that much," says Emanuel. "It's the 3 and 4 storms that really do the damage, and we could see more of them...

The game of leisure chicken begins: Which candidate will take...
...like the one in 2001 and the one we might be in now - always reduce incomes. The problem since 2000 is that even when the economy was growing, the fruits of that growth landed almost exclusively in the pockets of the wealthiest Americans. According to economists Thomas Piketty and Emanuel Saez, 75% of all income gains from 2002 to '06 went to the top 1% - households making more than $382,600 a year...
