Hurricanes and Chicken Little Syndrome

Leftmedia points to Hurricane Matthew as evidence of man-made climate change.

Seemingly with every major weather-related event the “man-made” climate change alarmists come rushing forward exclaiming that the event is yet more “evidence” supporting their “settled science” claims. Hurricanes, tornados, lots of rain, droughts, you name it. Like clockwork, the media jumped on Hurricane Matthew and pushed the climate alarmists narrative while marveling at how “timely” the Paris Climate Agreement is. As NBC News’ Ron Allen reported, “[Barack Obama] has done something that unites the world around the goal of saving the planet.” We have seemingly entered a comic book universe with fitting titles such as, “Super Hero Obama Saves Earth From Villain Climate Change.”

But the planet has a long history of major weather-related events. This reality has been confirmed time and again by sound scientific data, not questionable “scientific” models that have proven to be rather poor predictors of climate and weather. Back in 2005 when the U.S. experienced an increased number of hurricanes the climate alarmists predicted this to be the start of more frequent and intense storms. What followed was 11 years of low storm activity with no hurricanes hitting the U.S. mainland.

With the Left everything is political, and therefore an excuse to seek greater control over private citizens’ lives. The reality is that when people stop believing in God, then they look to some other source of power to solve their problems and protect them. The Left not only accepts this role, they gladly preach it, to the point where they make the ridiculous claim of even being able to control the weather.
