The lazy assertion that Hurricane Dorian is caused by climate change blogs.spectator.co.uk/2019/09/the-la…
From Al Gore to David Attenborough, footage of hurricanes is used as a staple background for films about climate change, inferring that the viewer is watching effects of a dreadful, man-made disaster which would not have occurred had it not been for human-induced climate change.
The science does not support the lazy assertion, made every time we have a hurricane or tropical storm, that we are watching climate change in action and that anyone who says otherwise is an idiot and a denier.
Anyone who claims that #Dorian, or any other hurricane, is a product of climate change and asserts that it would not have happened, or would have been less damaging, without man-made climate change does not have science on their side.
On the contrary, it is they who are denying the evidence.
