The Associated Press reports:
A study of a dozen of last year’s wildest weather events finds that in about half the cases, manmade global warming increased the likelihood of their occurrence.
Researchers with the United States and British governments concluded Thursday that the other cases reflected the random freakiness of weather.
They said climate change had made these events more likely: U.S. heat waves, Superstorm Sandy flooding, shrinking Arctic sea ice, drought in Europe’s Iberian peninsula, and extreme rainfall in Australia and New Zealand.
They found no connection for the U.S. drought, Europe’s summer extremes, a cold spell in the Netherlands’ winter, drought in eastern Kenya and Somalia, floods in northern China and heavy rain in southwestern Japan.
The study appears in in the Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society.
Did they toss back a few pints while they were throwing darts?
They never say what the actual evidence is, because there is none. It is wishful thinking on the part of the left. They are in denial.
Did the climate change back? I don’t recall as many wild weather events so far this year.
what wild weather are they speaking of?
