"The New Normal"

I'm going to pass on writing my usual kind of entry tonight; the phrase "the new normal" keeps repeating in my mind like a song you despise but can't get out of your head. 
 
When do you think people are going to accept the fact that what is happening to the weather (and therefore to millions of people across the globe) is at least in part due to our heedlessness?  Tonight on the news, one expert was saying that even if we changed our ways immediately, it would take decades to repair the damage we've done.
 
If you're like me, you immediately start thinking about our grandchildren or the little ones that will be coming to our doors tomorrow. 
 
Maybe. 
 
If the weather will allow them to leave the shelter of their homes.
