There's a summer heat wave going on, which gives journalists the opportunity to fill up their stories with climate change boilerplate.
Sure, the data doesn't show an increase in the number or intensity of hurricanes or tornadoes or wildfires.
Every time one or the other strikes, the press robotically connects that event to "Climate change." Every tornado season, we hear about how climate change is making them more frequent and more deadly.
Ustornadoes.com Here's what National Geographic said about tornadoes: "There is no real evidence that tornadoes are happening more often. A lot more are being recorded now than in 1950, but a closer look at the data shows the increase is only in the weakest category, EF0. There's been no increase in stronger twisters, and maybe even a slight decrease in EF4s and EF5s." The fact that there's no discernible trend in the frequency or intensity of hurricanes - see the chart below from the Environmental Protection Agency - won't stop the propagandists in the media from saying that there is.
Environmental Protection Agency And so, true to form, every story about the current heat wave says that climate change is to blame.
Gov page, which says right there at the top of the page that "Extreme heat is the number one weather-related killer.
" The truth is that extreme cold, not heat, is more lethal, as data from the EPA make clear.
