The “climate crisis” is the biggest scam in scientific history. Not one doomsday prediction has come true in the last 40 years. There has been little increase in the vast majority of extreme weather phenomena. Tropical cyclone frequency and intensity have not increased since 1980 or 1900 globally. Tornadoes have not increased in the U.S. since 1954. The increase in tornado outbreaks is largely an artifact of better detection from the advent of the WSR-88D radar in the late 1980s / early 1990s. Since 1990, there has been little change in tornado outbreak occurrence. Despite predictions of larger hailstones, there has been no statistically significant increase in severe or very large hail reports since 2000 in the U.S. River flooding has not increased globally since at least 1961. There are just regional and local increases and decreases within the bounds of internal variability. Cold waves have decreased since 1900 virtually everywhere in the Northern Hemisphere, and especially since 1990. Meteorological droughts have not increased in frequency or intensity since 1950 globally, or in the U.S. and Canada since the late 19th century. Only heatwaves and heavy rainfall events have increased since 1950, and those increases are largely regional. Heatwaves have not increased since 1900 in either the U.S. or Canada, and there is evidence that heatwaves in Australia were worse than recent years prior to 1910. Increases in hydrological and agricultural droughts are primarily due to poor water resource management and land use change. Obviously, that can be an issue, but it’s perfectly manageable. Global wildfire burn area has decreased by over 90% since 1900, mostly due to fire suppression. But even since the early 2000s, it has continued to decrease. Forest fire burn area has not increased since at least 2002. Increases in, say, the western U.S., are primarily because of poor forest management. Great Barrier Reef coral cover has made a significant recovery in recent years, even being at a record high in 2024. Arctic sea ice extent / volume have not changed much since 2007, despite predictions that the Arctic Ocean would be “ice-free” by 2008, 2010, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 (that was even in a peer-reviewed study), 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020. Climate models in the CMIP5 and CMIP6 suites have warmed the bulk atmosphere twice as much as real observations from NASA satellite data (from UAH and NOAA STAR) show. In 1985, the EPA predicted that global mean sea level would rise 26.2–39.3 cm (10.3–15.5”) by 2025. Satellites, however, estimate that sea level only by ~11.8 cm (4.6”) over that time. They were off by more than a factor of two. In 2006, Al Gore said that there would be no more snowfalls on top of Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania by 2016. But as it turns out, it still snows there. The 2001 IPCC report predicted that we would see a decrease in heavy snowstorms in the mid-latitudes. That did not happen, and some scientists now claim we’ll see more. And in general, apart from the cumulative inflation crisis, the quality of life on Earth has never been better. Global average life expectancy has more than doubled on every inhabited continent since 1850. The number of people living in poverty is at an all-time record low. The number of people malnourished is at an all-time record low. Global crop production and yields are at all-time record highs. Total deaths from extreme weather or weather-related phenomena have decreased by 96.2% since 1920 despite worldwide population increasing by over six billion persons since then. Our ability to adapt outweighs any kind of adversities Mother Nature may throw at us. The only person full of it is you. 🫵
