As America braces for another storm in the storm, the storms of the media are only more pronounced than future storms and tornadoes. Often before the dust is hiding after natural disasters, the headlines warn that air gusts and clouds in funnel are cloudy clouds.
Politicians blame carbon erasers while their social media floods are warned by an unavoidable disposal of climate abuse. It all became a message: If we do not pass the climate climate legislation today, more destruction of the horizon.
But there is a bad fact for these protests: Data does not support narrative.
As the principal statistics of Heritage Foundation, Kevin Dayaratna is referred to in his new book, “Climate recovery and US storms” are not supported by the relevant data. “
According to the meteorologists Joe D’Aleo and Roy wrencer, no rhetorical rise foundation that climate change drives a storm and severity. Long-term numbers within their chapters do not cause significant storm or violence in US storms for several decades. Indeed, both types of storms are good within their historical behavior. Some have been advertised even in 1970.
D’Aleo learned that from 1900 to today there is no significant increase in the number of or energy in the storms that make landfall in the United States. Data shows that some of the most deadly and strongest storms, such as Great Galveston Hurricane in 1900, or storms in 1969, occurred before the increase in CO2 empressions.
Spencer finds the average number of EF2-EF5 tornadoes, which causes great damage, faced in the past 70 years despite emissions. There is an increase, however, in the total number of weak (EF0-EF1) tornadoes recorded from 1950-1990. This Nuance can explain the detection technology rise like Doppler Radar.
In this additional ability to identify tornadoes in less-living areas, with overall economic growth and population spread, but we have known knobs compared to last few years.
Added data, no significant statistical display of an increase in constant or strength of knots and storms. However, the media spreads this account because fear is an effective tool to improve political purposes.
In each storm, there is a race to use the disaster justified to pass the radio climate law raise electricity taxes and transportation and internal engine restrictions. With each additional policy transfer demand, we will stop asking whether such policies, effective or necessary.
The real storm in the United States is no longer the time. It’s political political.
