Amid Media Blackout over Climate Change Links to Hurricane Matthew, Top Scientist Speaks Out

States of emergency have been declared in Florida, Georgia and the Carolinas as Hurricane Matthew barrels toward the Southeast coastline. More than 2 million people have been urged to evacuate their homes. The record-breaking storm has already killed at least 26 people in Haiti and four in the Dominican Republic. The storm is soon expected to hit the Bahamas and then strengthen as it moves toward Florida. Meteorologists are predicting Matthew could be the strongest hurricane to hit the United States since Wilma in 2005. Many scientists are saying climate change has intensified Hurricane Matthew because warmer ocean waters help create stronger hurricanes. Matthew is already the longest-lived Category 4 or 5 hurricane in the Eastern Caribbean on record.

Atmospheric Scientist: Donald Trump & Mike Pence are a Climate Change Denial Dream Team

While 2016 is on pace to become the warmest year on record, climate change has been largely ignored at the presidential and vice-presidential debates so far. We look at Donald Trump’s history of climate change denialism. He has called it a scam and a hoax. In 2012, Donald Trump tweeted: "The concept of global warming was created by and for the Chinese in order to make U.S. manufacturing non-competitive." We speak to Guardian journalist Oliver Milman and Michael Mann, a distinguished professor of atmospheric science at Penn State University.
Pig Truck Crashes in Ontario

Trap-Neuter-Release—It's Cruelty to Animals
So-called "trap-neuter-release" (TNR) programs—more accurately called "trap-neuter-abandon" programs—result in pain, suffering, and agonizing deaths for cats.

Horses Left with Open Sores, Left to Suffer
