The good part is people are wising up. The bad part is, so many poor studies are surfacing as the answer.
I tend to believe we are in our last warm year until about 11 years from now, when the next peak is expected. We will seen some nasty weather starting with a severe tornado season this year. I observe that they come in pairs when the earth is cooling; 1970 data.
The thinning of the herd has begun and we will see unbelievable things. Cooder winters, longer winters, shorter summers, ruined crops both in the Northern and Southern Hemisphere.
Florida is already hurting for water and if tropical storms are bounced off our shores and headed to England, Europe will lose a lot of crops and farm animals.
The dream of the environmentalists will be realized as farmers posts their bodies to the fence post.
Global cooling is a partial explanation. A more complete explanation is La Nina. It's the main thing factor the 2011 and 1974 outbreaks have in common. The forecast for this year is dicey:
The forecast rapid rise from a strong La Nina to neutral is the worst case scenario for tornadoes as it will create a very strong jet over the US during the spring.
