You could mention the roaming gangs of organ-harvesters, or the inside-out green mist.

Also, no beer allowed.

The Atlantic hurricane season seemed mild.

Active 2021 Atlantic hurricane season officially ends | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (noaa.gov)

NOAA predicted 13-20 named storms and 6-10 hurricanes. They also projected 3-5 major hurricanes (hurricanes of category 3 strength or stronger). Scientists at NOAA said there was a 60% chance that Hurricane Season 2021 would feature above-normal activity.

The active 2021 Atlantic hurricane season officially concludes today having produced 21 named storms (winds of 39 mph or greater), including seven hurricanes (winds of 74 mph or greater) of which four were major hurricanes (winds of 111 mph or greater).

Pretty good job on the prediction.  I'll have to remember that.

Yeah, I agree, for a change, though we didn't have a major storm causing major damage to the US so the news was muted.

Louisiana got pounded.

There will never be another hurricane to hit Florida, now that I have impact windows and a whole-house generator.

That's how stuff works with me.

Leaders in Per Capita CO2 Emissions
Oil-producing countries in the Middle East are the highest emitters of CO2 on a per capita basis, but developed countries like the U.S., Australia, New Zealand, and Canada also have some of the higher rates of per capita emissions.

Rank Country or Region Carbon Emissions Per Capita (t/year)
#1 Middle East A* 19.5
#2 Canada 15.2
#3 Saudi Arabia 14.5
#4 United States 14.4
#5 Australia & New Zealand 13.6
#6 Russia 11.4
#7 South Korea 11.3
#8 Kazakhstan & Turkmenistan 11.2
#9 Taiwan 10.8
#10 Japan 8.4
Global Average 4.4
*Middle East A group includes Bahrain, Oman, Kuwait, Qatar, and United Arab Emirates

Canada and the United States have per capita carbon footprints of 15.2 and 14.4 tonnes per year, respectively. Meanwhile, Australia and New Zealand combine for an average per capita footprint of over 13.6 tonnes per year.

It’s worth noting that all of these numbers are more than three times higher than the global average, which in 2019 was 4.4 tonnes per person.
