Unintentionally funny climate headline
From today’s Climate Wire (subs. req’d):
Climate change may help Fla. farmers save their land
No — I’m afraid that between sea level rise, storm surges, and hurricanes, climate change won’t be saving anybody’s land in Florida.
What Climate Wire meant, of course, was that action on climate change might provide income to farmers and forresters in Florida — as is clear from their source, Orlando Sentinel, which has a better headline, “Florida farmers, foresters could profit from the global-warming fight, a study finds.”

Wouldn’t the climate fight include aspects of habitat restoration, wetland protection and other ‘land grabbing’ initiatives that might hurt farmers?
