Scientists and environmentalist are crying out the danger of global warming as evidence of the large number of hurricanes this season. This is false!
The 1940s decade saw the record number of hurricanes of this century. NOAA reports a total of 24. The average per decade since 1860 is 17.6. No one was crying global warming back then.
A report on the fallacy of global warming was detailed by C.R. de Freitas of the School of Geography and Environmental Science at the University of Auckland in New Zealand in 2002. He reports of at least fourteen fallacies with a major lack of true evidence on global warming. For example:
Fallacy 10: Global warming will result in more extreme weather events. Nothing could be further from the truth, as de Freitas demonstrates. Whether it be extremes of heat and cold, droughts, floods, hail, tornadoes or hurricanes, there is absolutely no evidence that these phenomena have increased globally over the twentieth century. In fact, there is much empirical evidence to suggest that more warmth leads to a more stable climate. (From c02science.org Vol 5 No 52)
Of course the environmentalist and ruling officials would like you to believe this myth so they can encourage or force you to change your lifestyle to a less quality lifestyle. This change would allow the ruling officials more control over you life. You will less choices for types of transportation and travel. You may also have less choices of places of employment.
The fourteenth fallacy shows who is promoting this fallacy and it says it all:
Fallacy Fourteen: The threat of human-caused climate change justifies taking the action proposed in the UNFCCC and Kyoto Protocol. If there is a consensus on anything related to this issue, it is that Kyoto's effect on temperature "would be imperceptible," writes de Freitas. "So," he continues, "in addition to being ineffective, costly, and unfair to industrialized nations, the Kyoto Protocol is also unnecessary." To which we say … Amen! (From c02science.org Vol 5 No 52)
