“That’s beside the point. Climate scientists have been predicting a greater frequency of extreme weather events like Sandy as a result of climate change for years,

Ha ha! That's a good one. My retort would be..."Yeah? Well so has the Bible and for a lot longer than some scientists trying to justify their existence."

If you must....

Shhh, U.S. Leads World In Carbon Emissions Reductions

Technology, market forces credited for reductions

Good one! But I would be inclined to say “oh you mean climate scientist like Al Gore?” or maybe I'd say “I think what the earth needs is more cow bell” and then change the subject.

Nonsensical comments need a nonsensical reply.

I have yet to see any documented evidence that there actually IS a greater incidence of extreme weather events! Those who promote the melting ice cap rantings jump on things like Katrina and Sandy to support the case but conveniently ignore all those seasons when there are ZERO such events. Killer storms have been happening throughout history, they didn’t just start happening. If I say something about unusually cool weather in South Carolina they say I am nuts but Sandy is proof positive of what they say.
