Officials point to Russian drought and Asian deluge as consistent with climate change

Government officials are pointing to the drought and wildfires in Russia, and the floods across Central and East Asia as consistent with climate change predictions. While climatologists say that a single weather event cannot be linked directly to a warming planet, patterns of worsening storms, severer droughts, and disasters brought on by extreme weather are expected as the planet warms.

AGW BS Alert!

Ping!

These idiots will point to anything as so-called “proof”.....nothing new here, at all. =.=

Consistent with something we call ... "weather"...
Sometimes its lousy. Sometimes its nice.
Weather ... its never static - always changing and gives us something to talk about.
Too bad the blood-sucking bureaucrats saw that there was money to made in the 'changing weather'.

Global Brainwashing.

Carbon Tax would give them all the resources and backing of the law they need to take complete and utter control of our lives.

In name of saving planet the NWO fascists will kill everyone they don’t need or don’t deem fit to share the resources with them.

I guess the Irish potato famine was George Bush’s fault too.

And I thought the historic snow fall in the Baltimore area last winter was consistent with Climate Change. They said a warmer atmosphere would hold more water. What a ship of fools. From what I have seen, the temps in Russia are not even getting over 100 F.

> Russian drought and Asian deluge ...

But if had been Asian drought and Russian deluge, that would have been seen as Anthropogenic Global Cooling

As these bozos said during the record freezing temperatures last winter, “Weather is not climate.”

[Wuli]

The conditions are “consistent” with “bad” weather and the one fact is that “bad” weather has always existed, just as “changing weather” has always existed and whether bad or changing it moves in cycles and cycles go through periods of small degrees of change and periods of extreme change, and there is nothing “unnatural” about the phenomenon of either "bad" or changing weather.

In fact, the only condition that is forever true about weather IS CHANGE,

[SampleMan]

The question is, what would they ever find to be inconsistent with climate change?

Answer: Nothing. Hot= climate change, Cold= climate change, dry= climate change, wet= climate change, surely too much average would also = climate change.
