My advice to Ric would be that he avoid any claims about global warming, even
if he believes he somehow has evidence of same. Climate is a very broad subject
and has virtually no agreed-upon theories, despite John Cook's absurd claim that
97% of climatologists agree (on a vague "something") and a consensus exists.
Since warming ceased in 1999, we now have 33 published, various , mostly
contradictory explanations for what some have called a "pause" in global warming.
Some consensus.
Obviously, any events that have popped up in the past 16 years cannot have any
connection to global warming, since there has been none.
Nor have any of the many studies shown the slightest statistical correlation between
warming and extreme weather events, despite having more than a hundred years'
worth of weather record data to analyze. At this point only the most out-of-it,
extreme global warming alarmists claims any connection. The IPCC doesn't, nor does any
reputable scientific organization or periodical.
