Hi there,

The job of a journalist is to go to where the silence is — especially when those in power seek to silence voices that question or challenge power. That is what we do at Democracy Now! day in and day out, and we're able to do it because of financial support from people like you — people who trust and depend on our independent reporting. If you believe that freedom of speech and freedom of the press are essential to the functioning of a democratic society, please donate today. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Democracy Now!

New England Hit with New Blizzard in Record Month of Snowfall

HeadlineFeb 16, 2015

New England has been hit with its fourth major snowstorm in less than a month. Two feet of snow fell in some areas, adding to up to six feet already on the ground. February has already become Boston’s snowiest month since records began in 1872, with reports the city has now recorded more snow in three weeks than Chicago has ever seen in an entire winter. Climate scientist Michael Mann noted the link between record snowfall and climate change, tweeting: “If you deny that warmer ocean temps lead to greater snowfall with coastal winter storms, you are not a climate denier. You are a physics denier.”
