		<description><![CDATA[A June 2007 cover story for the Chronicle: Many researchers have concluded that climate change is feeding extreme hurricanes, and an amplified fear of more Katrinas could bring about the second coming for weather modification. A computer simulation from a Colorado State University professor could be the future of the field — and the federal government’s contingency plan for looming hurricane disasters. But, then, just because something can be done doesn’t mean it should.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I am fascinated by weather modification, such as cloud seeding, maybe because of the sci-fi elements and the issues of hubris it raises&#8211;that people can control the weather. <a href="http://www.rmchronicle.com/index.php?option=com_content&amp;task=view&amp;id=1060" target="_blank">This feature</a> originally ran in the <em>Rocky Mountain Chronicle</em> and also got a mention on <a href="http://blogs.nature.com/climatefeedback/2007/06/correlation_is_not_causation_q.html" target="_blank">Climate Feedback</a>, a climate-change discussion blog of the journal, <em>Nature</em>.</p>
<p>I won a third-place award for science reporting from the Colorado chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists for this cover story.</p>
