Claim:
the bushfires [in Australia] were caused by arsonists and a series of lightning strikes, not 'climate change'
Claim:
"climate models that attempt to predict the future temperature of the planet...don’t work. They haven’t worked in the past. They don’t work now."; "the number of factors that influence climate—the sun, the earth’s orbital properties, oceans, clouds, and, yes, industrial man—is huge and enormously variable"; "CO2 is a minor contributor to the warming of the earth"
…states, “Economic losses from weather– and climate-related disasters have increased”[4]. Wrightstone also misleads readers about the impacts of atmospheric CO2 and global temperature by claiming that CO2 levels and temperatures…
…weather variability worsened the fires by increasing dry vegetation (which serves as fuel) Climate scientists explain that more research is needed to better understand how climate change impacted these fires…
Claim:
"Global warming saves 166,000 lives each year"; those claiming that climate change is causing heat-related deaths are wrong because they ignore that the population is growing and becoming older
Claim:
The jet stream meanders more, with big loops bringing warm air to the frozen north and cold air into warmer southern climes.
…ignitions, fuels, droughts, and so-called “fire weather” conditions[1]. Wildfires occur at the nexus of many factors which closely overlap and interact to influence fire behaviour (Fig. 1). Figure 1 –…
Claim:
Hurricane Milton is a targeted geo-engineered storm. Hurricanes don’t develop in the western Gulf of Mexico and head straight east to Florida.
…the differences between climate and weather – climate change occurs over decades, while weather fluctuates over days to weeks. And recently we covered why cold snaps and cold weather can…
Scientists’ Feedback SUMMARY This article in The Washington Post describes a pattern of unusually warm weather in February 2018, during which the North Pole saw above-freezing air temperatures. The article…
