    I suppose you will just ignore this evidence just like you ignore any other evidence you don't like, this from Yale:

    No.
    Evidence?
    https://www.theguardian.com/weather/ng-interactive/2018/sep/11/atlantic-hurricanes-are-storms-getting-worse

    -loads of relevant data i.e. evidence shown on that link. Pretty conclusive to any non-moron.

    That website is not evidence. It does not even explain how a hurricane forms properly because it ignores condensation, an important ingredient in hurricane formation.
    Yalecrap then lies about hurricanes becoming more frequent in a warmer climate. Even PBS' Nova says the opposite is true.

    More confirmation bias from you with a website full of false information.

    Nope. You are wrong.

    You also need to decide which hurricanes are worse, those that cause the most deaths, the costliest or the greater wind speed. No one hurricane does all three equally or close. Mitch caused a lot of deaths but didn't even make the Guardians list of costliest hurricanes. As long as people keep investing a lot of money in the Caribbean islands and FL the cost will always increase. Seems like cherry picking to me.

    Define a worse hurricane. Does money mean more than human life? Does wind speed mean worse if fewer people die and it costs less? Seems to me you want to use all 3 when it is convenient at the time as a propaganda tool.

    Actually it is sea level rise that we are talking about. That is the name of the thread.

    Climate change has always happened. Ice ages are cyclical. It is natural.
    Back in the day, it used to get dark at night (on account of the natural earths rotation relative to the sun) and we just had to quit working and go to bed. Then we harnessed fire and built lanterns. Now, thanks to Edison et al. we have artificial lights that allow you to stay up all night and read/work if you want. From satellites, the developed world is lit at night. Natural problem..... fixed by human ingenuity.

    Some folks would say that is not 'fixed' but a problem in itself.
    Astronomers for instance.
    Less and less dark sky to study the stars.

    A climate scientist might be a climatologist or not. If you think all climate scientists are climatologists you are wrong. Look into it.

    Name any scientist that IS technically a formally qualified "climate scientist" that is NOT technically a formally qualified "climatologist"; Give a link, or combination of links, clearly explaining he is both a formally qualified "climate scientist" and NOT a formally qualified "climatologist".

    @wildgrass In the UK we are taxed on cars based on its CO2 emissions. My company car is currently costing me nearly £9000/A of my salary. Its just a way of extracting money from us. Hence my 'the devil' comment. I forgot that this is an international forum.

    We got really piissed when my company car was changed from tax free to taxed, here in Pa.
    9000 pounds a year is close to 200 dollars a week, pretty stiff. That is besides your TV license, right? How much for TV?

    We have been over this before. Fred Singer is a retired climate scientist. Before he was retired he was a climate scientist even though he was not a climatologist.

    Wikipedia has a whole list of climate scientists and most of them are not climatologists. You already know that very well, yet you pretend you don't. Why? Do you think one thousand lies are worth more than one word of truth?
