Sometimes we don’t know or want to know big, worldly truths. International politics. Fast-moving viruses. The Earth’s climate crises.

Letter: Magic 8-Ball not needed to see climate change is real
John Balentine suggests in his “Magic 8-Ball” column (Here’s Something, Dec. 30) that one warm half-year in Antarctica magically nullifies more than 100 years of climate data.
