Description: 

For many Americans, the real evidence of global warming is at home, in our houses and on our streets. It’s what’s playing out as we make plans to go to the store or head off to work across town. And for many who rarely make the front page of major media, it’s the say-so of whether they can harvest the fish they need standing on the seashore or maintain the foundation under their ice-supported homes.
