Climate change real

To the Editor:

In “Nothing to worry about today” (Jan. 6, PlanIt Style), the writer seems to suggest there is plenty of time to deal with climate change. We are told not to be fooled by the gloom-and-doom stories in the media.

Would that the media accepted its obligation to accurately inform the public on this issue. 2012 was the year that climate change made an undeniable mark on the planet with record-breaking heat waves, droughts, wildfires and extreme storms.
