[QUOTE="[serious], post: 71434237, member: 160873"] Flooding in Bangladesh Drought in Sudan Increased hurricanes through the Caribbean Loss of permafrost in Siberia Bramble Cay melomy Golden toad Too short of a window. That's like saying a person with a degenerative lung disease isn't dying because it didn't get measurably worse in the last week.
