YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Leading up to every major storm, talking heads repeat the claim that it was caused by carbon emissions. Some may even claim storms today are getting stronger and more frequent but this simply is not true. We are not seeing more frequent hurricanes nor are we seeing a greater number of major hurricanes. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change said as much in its latest science report. Cherry-picking endpoints can produce “trends” that are either up or down. The fact is that for the past century, there is no trend. The truth is whether carbon dioxide levels rise, fall, or stay the same we will continue to see hurricanes. Weather catastrophes will continue to strike and we will still face the danger wrought by nature’s wrath.
