And now the tornadoes are "a result of global warming" too !

Apparently "human caused" global warming "expert" John Kerry thinks this season's high number of tornadoes is a result of "global warming" :

I wonder how global warming "expert" John Kerry would explain this season's unusually cool temperatures ?

Just now, I'm wondering how you would explain: "unusually cool" temperatures...

They probably are. It's hard to tell, human settlement has intruded in the way of historically active tornado areas. But global warming will result in more frequent and violent storms.

You remind me of the guy from Idiocracy saying, "But it's got what plants crave!"

 

electrolites?

 

Some parts of the globe had an unusually cool April. e.g.

 

That's just a side effect of global warming, don't let Mother Nature fool you.

What are you talking about ? Unusually cool ??
It has been more than 10 degrees Celsius above average here for the last couple of months.

 

Global warming may cause greater numbers of earthquakes too.

 

For the Netherlands it will mean more rain, more storms, hot summers and warm winters. They say..
Global warming can have an array of effects depending on the geography.
How does the earthquake thing work ? I think I heard something about that, but I can't remember the arguments.

 

Increased or decreased rainfall would cause changing pressure on the continental plates.

 

Yikes ! And the Netherlands is already tilting since the end of the last ice-age.
The removal of gas in the north of the Netherlands also caused a sinking of the land.

 

GW the new age scape goat for all that is "natural"....if there is a problem in nature.....it must be GW! (Bush?!) lol

 

I heard even butterflies have an effect...

 

He'd probably do what he did in that report - ask the US weather service to provide him with the answer

:sleep:

 

This is "within the 95% confidence limits of the expected trend of global warming."

At least if you constantly move the goal posts and making it meaningless.

 

That's the problem with the "human caused" global warming movement; now they come out with hundreds of different predictions and tailored model predictions to cover their asses in any event that may happen. "Well it was predicted by this model", "Well it was predicted by that model", etc.....

There's about as much real science in their movement as their is in the Christian "Scientists"....

 

It's not a movement, it's scientific consensus.

 

There was a consensus the Earth was flat 600+ years ago too....

I'm not saying "human caused" global warming theories are dead wrong, but I think there's more eco-politics involved in it than real science. Just like in the 1970s when "human caused" global cooling "experts" predicted that temperatures would be decreasing in the future.....

 

Not true.

Most people accepted that the Earth was spherical since the Greeks first started thinking about it. Ptolemy's view was used for navigational reference since the 4th century, although there was a minority of dissenters, mostly for ideological reasons.

Just like then, they minority of objections to human-caused global warming are based on ideology, this time of a political nature. Your accusations are the typical projection of right-wing cranks.
