Is Climate Change Making Hurricanes Worse?

Original Article

Posted By: FlyRight, 12/31/2024 7:04:37 AM

Climate alarmists like President Joe Biden assure us that all we need do to avert the destruction of hurricanes—or at least to lessen it—is to sacrifice offerings to the climate gods by giving up our gas-guzzling internal combustion engines and paying indulgences to Al Gore or something. You see, humans as a species have sinned, and we must sacrifice our prosperity to prevent the end of the world. Unfortunately for the alarmists, the world stubbornly refuses to end, and even the supposed evidence they trot out as proof of impending doom doesn’t exactly mean what they think it means. Take hurricanes, for example

Commucrat-driven media hysteria would have you believe they're worse, but frankly, we had bad hurricanes in the past, too. A Leftist ideologue with a microphone and a camera can do FAR more damage, either by commission or omission, than ANY hurricane or tornado!

Hurricanes have always been destructive and the people building homes where the hurricanes cause their most destruction (at the beach) of course makes their destruction more expensive.

Two hundred or two thousand years from now we will still be experiencing hurricanes. I suggest that the housing industry start building stronger homes or looking at underground real estate.

Covering barrier islands barely above sea level with homes and towns is what is leading to massive destruction. More people moving to hurricane zones and more development there leads to more places to be destroyed by hurricanes. When places like Florida werejust vast undeveloped tropical states, there was much less destruction because there was nothing to destroy. That has changed.

Well, if anyone thought these loons would give up seeing as how there's overwhelming evidence humans are NOT changing the climate, here's your answer. Hopefully President Trump makes some headway dismantling the idiotic garbage that's been implemented to "Save the Planet"!! Maybe even prosecute some of these buzzards.

Bottom line - no. The sun, our position around the sun, and the position of our solar system within the Milky Way galaxy are the main causes of climate on the Earth. Always have been and always will be. Humans have some input but minimal compared to Earth's position within the Milky Way galaxy.

This issue keeps coming up and it immediately gets dragged into how people feelz about it, instead of whether there is evidence of being true. The WORLD IS ENDING don't ya know? There is no evidence for Hurricanes getting worse, nor that "climate change" is having any impact. Yet BO and other toadies come out and lie, making declarative statements that have no facts to back it up. They know it and don't care. Climate change is a tool with one purpose, to establish tighter control over people via government and to enrich government and industrial players. It is a tool being used to undermine and sabotage successful industrial countries that the instigators cannot do through competition or force. They attack us by collaboration with internal enemies and weak minded people that are useful idiot foot soldiers. We now KNOW enough to see that the whole thing is a deception and those who continue to push it are traitors to this county.

I believe that Global 'Cooling' (oops!)/Warming(oops!)/Climate Change(oops!)/Anthropogenic Climate Disruption (I THINK that's what they're calling it this week) is the biggest SCAM in history. Look at the number of people being scammed, the money wasted, the Bovine Scatology spread by AlGore and all of his Federally-funded minions.... not just here, but Western Europe as well. Funny how AlGore Bill Gates and 'John Effin' Kerry' want all of US riding bicycles and eating bugs, while THEY trot around the world in their private jets on a whim at a moment's notice, dining on caviar and filet mignon. One would think that if THEY believed what they're selling, they would lead by example (cough, cough!) Meantime, the ChiComs are putting TWO Large COAL-Fired Power Plants into service Each Week, and have been doing so for several years. China, India and Indonesia account for about 70% of the world's coal usage. China burned FOUR BILLION TONS of COAL last year. Their annual Increase Swamps the total usage of the USA and Europe. But the ChiComs claim that they are a 'Developing Country' and so are EXEMPT from the UN 'rules' that apply to everyone else. What a LOAD OF FECES!

A political war on the Hudson erupted Monday over New York Gov. Kathy Hochul and the MTA’s controversial $9 congestion toll. The MTA can now begin collecting the first-in-the-nation congestion fee on Sunday, Jan. 5, to enter Manhattan south of 60th Street — following a federal judge’s ruling in Newark. While Judge Leo Gordon said environmental mitigation concerns on the Jersey side of the Hudson have to be addressed, he chose not to issue a preliminary injunction to block implementation of the toll in his 72-page ruling.

In fact, no Chinese ruling group has ever held indisputable sovereignty to the island. From 1928 to 1943, the Communist Party itself recognized Taiwan as a state separate and apart from China.

When Donald Trump won the election, Elon Musk captured the shifting media landscape perfectly. In a post on X, Musk declared, “You are the media now.” His words were met with outrage from legacy media, but time has proven him right. Traditional media, once trusted to hold power accountable, has devolved into little more than a PR wing for the Democratic Party—and Joe Biden in particular. The past week proved it. The National Archives recently released damning photographs showing Joe Biden meeting with Hunter Biden’s Chinese business associates. This directly contradicts Biden’s long-standing claim that he had no involvement in his son’s foreign business dealings.

RENO, Nev. — President Joe Biden’s administration said Monday it is taking steps to bar oil, gas and geothermal development for 20 years in northeastern Nevada’s Ruby Mountains. The administration said it has submitted an application to withdraw about 264,000 acres (107,000 hectares) of federal lands in the area from such leasing. That starts a 90-day public comment period on the 20-year prohibition and prevents oil, gas and geothermal development for two years during the process.

Plants are a low-calorie food source, so it can be challenging for animals to consume enough energy to meet their needs. Now climate change is reducing the nutritional value of some foods that plant eaters rely on. Human activities are increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide levels and raising global temperatures. As a result, many plants are growing faster across ecosystems worldwide.
