With every winter storm, including the blizzard hitting the Northeast this week, climate change skeptics return to a familiar argument: If the world is getting warmer, why am I stuck out here, shoveling so much snow? Climate scientists tell FRONTLINE that blizzards don’t refute evidence of climate change- in fact, climate change can make blizzards more intense. The first thing people need to understand, they say, is the difference between climate and weather… “Weather is telling us what is happening at a particular time,” said Rutgers Climate Institute co-director Anthony Broccoli.
