Weird weather and climate warming are two separate things, but a Stanford team is linking them.
Using math, powerful computers and historical records, research led by Noah Diffenbaugh found that climate change has boosted the odds of extreme heat, drought, punishing rainstorms and retreating sea ice.
The odds of hitting record-setting level of extremes have been made greater by climate warming, caused by human emission of greenhouse gases, said Diffenbaugh, a professor of Earth system science at Stanfords School of Earth, Energy & Environmental Sciences.
In the past, scientists typically avoided conflating individual weather events and climate change, citing the challenges of teasing apart human influence from the natural variability of the weather.
The new paper, the latest in a burgeoning new field of climate science called extreme event attribution, links them. Published in last weeks Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the team built the first-ever four-step framework for testing whether global warming has contributed to record-setting weather events.

OK!! Everybody pay attention!
Lesson for today:
1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.
2. The sun is a giant nuclear furnace that controls the climates of all its planets.
3. The earth is one of the suns planets.
4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.
5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.
Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

These assholes are using the same data as they used in 1975.
As they become whores, they sound like a pack of fools.
Do you suppose that they will change their tune over the next 8 years to keep the gravy flowing in? Will they actually begin to find that there is NO PROBLEM with climate change to keep the current administration happy? At some point, I expect they to begin serving the new paymasters as they begin to starve. Whores, indeed.
That is to say that rising temps brings on higher CO2 levels, not the opposite.
“Using math, powerful computers and historical records...”
ah, I see, well then, in that case...it must be scientific fact, as asserted by the article.
There’s no possible way that the formula the computer is running could be wrong, or the historical data be inaccurate.
I’m sure there was no effort to produce evidence for a predetermined conclusion!
Now, where do they show the correlation to actual weather events recently? ...you know, in reality where extreme events have been on the decline?
It’s fascinating that all you have to do is say “math and computers reveal X” and everyone accepts it as truth. Garbage-in garbage-out, that’s all computers do. Get the equation right and it’s a useful tool, get the equation wrong and the computer still runs it, it can’t tell it’s wrong. This isn’t science. That’s not how the scientific method works.
By this method, I could “prove” that the world ended yesterday.
Given that “extreme” weather incidence has been steadily declining for some years now, if it is, indeed, linked to AGW, then it demonstrates that either AGW is lessening or it is a crock.

Pretty much sums up most research labeled as *scientific*.
lol - science is really about having a hypothesis and trying to prove it wrong. What we have today are theories that people try to show “could be right” and then make it the basis of policy as though it is “scientific fact”.
All one has to do is go through old journals. Most of it now shown to be wrong. If half of all “science” journal material is wrong, how much of the media news is true?
“Times columnist blasted by nasty left for climate change piece”:
“They know as all environmentalists should that history is littered with the human wreckage of scientific errors married to political power.

LISA M. KRIEGER is a fool.
Especially because the gov’t is so willing to give out grants for these bogus studies.
Perhaps under *45* this will end, or slow down to a trickle.
so, how does he explain lack of hurricanes for a decade ?
oh wait, that would be an extreme....
They really need to come up with a new hoax. The man-made climate change hoax has run its course. What do you suppose the new hoax will be?
The next one is Climate Weirding. Dude. You do know the climate is getting weird right. Lol. The odds are they have no idea what they are talking about.
“What’s the next hoax?”
I’ve thought a lot about that, but I haven’t a clue. Who ever would have expected trannies would come after the homos won everything they wanted? Who ever would think men in ladies bathrooms would be their cause du jour? The insane left never fails to disappoint.
But could another hoax command hundreds of billions of tribute like this one? Hard to imagine.
This is FAKE NEWS:

This is FO REALZ news:
25 New Papers Confirm A Remarkably Stable Modern Climate: Fewer Intense Storms, Hurricanes, Droughts, Floods, Fires
Its not just droughts, but nearly all extreme weather is declining or at or near record lows
