Here’s how cynically anti-science the Warmunist lobby is. These people blame every single weather event, from earthquakes to winter storms, on Global Warming.
Al Gore and others tried to claim that Global Warming was causing hurricanes. But the hurricanes weren’t showing up.
Now the Warmunists could have attributed the pause to Global Warming. We’re talking about people who claim the rise of ISIS is caused by Global Warming. They clearly don’t have a problem attributing everything to the Warming Devil.
But what scientific explanation is being credited for the pause? Luck.
In a stroke of luck, no major hurricanes rated Category 3 or higher have struck U.S. soil during the past nine years, a new study finds. This is the country’s longest “hurricane drought” in recorded history, or since 1851, the researchers said. The previous record lull lasted eight years, from 1861 to 1868, they said.
So why not blame Global Warming for this one? Because the narrative only associates Global Warming with negative phenomena.
It’s a propaganda gambit to get people afraid so they’ll give in and let the environmentalists and Wall Street impose rationing and poverty through Carbon Credits. The narrative can’t associate Warming with anything good. The whole thing is an obvious scare tactic.
Wouldn’t a more honest answer be, “We don’t know. It is beyond our current level of knowledge.”
And isn’t that the honest answer to the mysteries of climate change.
Joe Bastardi would tear those fools a new one.
Not luck. The natural fluctuation of the frequency of weather phenomena. Nature is not obliged to give us the number of storms that we say is normal.
Having grow up in a family of MD’s and Ph.D’s this is exactly how the older guys operate mentally and insist the younger ones follow along. Settled science, especially when it comes to theory, is a joke.
