Dear friends: Click on the link we have attached to this update to watch meteorologist Ari Sarsalari from the Weather Channel explain that Hurricane Irma has remained a Category 5 Hurricane for so long mainly because of the extraordinarily warm temperatures of the Atlantic Ocean's surface water (And pretty deep water), BUT HE SAYS NOTHING ABOUT CLIMATE CHANGE BEING THE CAUSE OF THAT VERY WARM OCEAN WATER. Ask yourself why. We are on our own. We must get much louder and bigger. Most of our leaders have been bought out by the corporate power that does not care for the future of humanity and the planet. Today's profits is all that matters to the reigning corporations. Note: IBM became the parent company for the Weather Channel in 2015
