- Go to A Trip Down Memory Lane: Xenox and the 2008 Tornado Season
problem is you didn't prove it untrue
YOU DEMONSTRATED THAT THE REPORTER WAS USING A FORM OF SENSATIONALISM WHICH DOES NOT BELONG IN REASONABLE DISCOURSE.
What I did subsequently in response was to provide continual data that tornado activity was abnormally high, using the table you provided.
bottom line: scientists predicted increased tornado and hurricane activity as a result of Global Warming (Climate Change), and these did indeed increase.

YEARS AGO, IT WAS PREDICTED THAT TORNADO AND HURRICANE ACTIVITY
would increase as a result of Global Warming.
tornado and hurricane activity did indeed increase.
so what is the reason for the increase, if not global warming?
and if it increases again?
It's sort of like being warned that smoking causes cancer. There is no material means of making a connection; however the data supports the proposition. Tobacco companies denied the connection for decades. People died.
Here, we have the tornadoes, hurricanes, droughts, less precipitation in the Rockies, with the resulting lowering of levels in water reservoirs. Also some seal levels rising and coastal storms doing more damage as a result. And more.
People began to smoke less, fewer people smoke now. Health benefits are beginning to be seen.
Discontinued use of aerosols now allows the ozone layer to reconstitute. And there are other instances where cleaning up pollution, etc., has resulted in a positive turnaround (Bald Eagles, for example).
Pollutants do more than raise the atmospheric temperature. They impact on the health of people: asthma, pulmonary diseases, others -- all are a result.
Bottom line is: reducing pollutants will be healthful to everyone and increase our productivity and decrease medical expenses, Not just alleviate Global Warming.
