Weather forecaster receives death threat after climate change report
Original: He talked about climate change in his weather forecast. Then came a death threat
A television weather presenter included climate change in a routine weather forecast and subsequently received a death threat. The incident has drawn attention to the abuse faced by broadcast meteorologists who link extreme weather to global warming, a practice increasingly common but sometimes met with hostility from viewers who reject the science.
Why now: The severity of threatening a forecaster simply for mentioning climate change has struck a nerve in ongoing debates over climate science backlash.
