No nukes for hurricanes, but maybe its time to restart Project Stormfury
Don't nuke hurricanes, seed them.
Don't nuke hurricanes, seed them.
Hurricane season is here. And with climate change, the storms are more frequent and stronger… except… they aren’t. WATCH NOW.
Human ingenuity and progress are positives, not negatives, when dealing with environmental disasters such as Hurricane Barry. CFACT's Graham Beduze was there.
Joe Bastardi, the meteorologist who predicted Sandy's track would take it to NYC, dishes out the history of hurricanes. Devastatingly normal?
There’s been no increase in the number of major hurricane hitting Florida. The number of days between major hurricane landfalls in Florida increased. “[S]till no trend in either intensity or frequency of strikes over the last 118 years,” one scientist wrote.
CFACT's Marc Morano takes on Elizabeth Warren's bill to force businesses to report "climate risks" and the media's obsession with attributing natural weather events to global warming. WATCH NOW
In an interview with NBC News reporters, Landsea said he is concerned when hurricanes are used “as a poster child” for global warming.
“Linking hurricane rainfall to global warming today (and even decades from now) based upon such a tiny contribution is misleading.”
Watch students open their eyes when CFACT presents them with the facts on U.S. hurricane activity.
CFACT policy advisor Larry Bell refutes the claims of alarmist activists that hurricanes Harvey and Irma were "enhanced" as a result of climate change -- and shows that the same alarmists had made the same statements in prior years regarding prior hurricanes -- and then there was a 12-year lull.
After all was said and done, neither Harvey nor Irma was the "worst" hurricane ever to hit the U.S. CFACT advisor Larry Bell recounts over a century's information on hurricanes in the Atlantic, Gulf of Mexico, and Caribbean Sea, noting that hurricane damages are al;ways catastrophic for those whose lives are uprooted by them.
CFACT Senior Policy Analyst Paul Driessen quotes multiple climate scientists who explain that high-rainfall tropical storms have battered the Texas coast (and Florida) for generations of recorded history (and likely long before). Thus, the efforts to tie Hurricane Harvey to "climate change" are "disgraceful" -- and ignore the reality that Houston was built on impermeable clays and reclaimed swamp lands with a history of subsidence.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) recently posted a summary of research on the link between global warming and hurricanes, concluding it is “premature” to say human activities are making storms more powerful.
Tropical cyclone activity in the Southern Hemisphere for the 2016-2017 season is the “quietest on record, by far” based on records going back nearly five decades.
CFACT advisor Larry Bell asks the rhetorical question -- Will the climate fanatics tone down their rhetoric given the lack of evidence of climate catastrophe? Indeed, though nearly every single fear-filled prediction of theirs has failed to occur, they will not be shamed into silence as long as the worldwide "science" community enjoys the financial benefits of parroting the party line.
