There are an awful lot of hard facts presented. What parts specifically do you take issue with?

  The first six paragraphs of personal gripes, opinions, and hyperbole, for a start. If the story started and ended with hard facts, interpretation, and interview, it would be less painful to read and more effective in conveying the point. The way it's written, I'd be surprised if a healthy 20% of readers would reach the actual news: that the horizon for the government's first-party predictions of climate change is being shortened to about twenty years rather than about eighty. That would be something specific that you could make up your own mind about, instead of adopting the tedious framing, and something you could take up with your representatives and your community.
