Severe and unusual weather / by Foley, Jessie Ann,author.(CARDINAL)347468;
"Nadine has rules for surviving as the new kid: Keep your head down. Mind your own business. Don't stick your neck out for anyone. Especially not for Francis Pepper, the boy everyone in school picks on. Nadine just wants to get through the rest of the year without any trouble. She knows that once her mom is out of rehab, it'll be back to the unpredictable in Chicago. But when she's paired with Francis for a project about Centralia, Illinois, her new hometown, she's drawn to his story. Francis was born the exact day that a tornado, the Great Tornado of the New Millennium (GTNM), destroyed the area. The cyclone even killed his mom. Then Nadine finds a mysterious book that contains instructions for channeling weather. Before she can blink, she and Francis are caught in the swirling whispers and lies that surround the GTNM. Try as they might, they can't figure out two things: Who would want to summon a tornado to Centralia? And why would they want to hurt Francis's family?" --

It's intended as a solution, but it also can create unintended consequences. When scientists and political leaders can't even agree on the extent of climate change, it can seem hopeless to think they will come together to work on solutions.
