Will Climate Change Get Some Respect Now ?

In "Will Climate Change Get Some Respect Now " Author Nicholas D. brings to the light how hurricanes come about. Therefore the article explains how they are started, what fuels them, the climate change, and how Hurricane Sandy was destructive.
One example that supports my answer in the article is where it says "Sandy was particularly destructive because it was prevented from moving back out to sea by a " blocking pattern " associated with the jet stream. There's debate about this, but one recent study suggested that melting sea ice in the Arctic may lead to such blocking ".
Another example that supports my answer from the article is when Nicholas indicates " Democrats have been absent on climate change, but Republicans have been even more stubborn. Their failure is odd, because in other areas of national security Republicans pride themselves on their preparedness. Romney doesn't want to wait until he sees an Iranian  nuclear weapon before acting, so why the lack of action on climate change?"
I didn't find this topic interesting because the beginning didn't catch my attention and it forced me to not want to read on.
This topic somewhat occurs to the world today but it seems as though the idea and the  topic was all over the place so I couldn't really understand. 
Another thing about this article is that it does talk about hurricanes first and then talk about problems between the govenor and the president, but the form of the article needs to be more organized so it can be more understandable.
