The depletion if the ozone layer was a real threat in my lifetime. It’s only through concerted global action that we were able to not only stop but reverse the depletion.
AGW is different in that even though the science agreed we still have politicians who are convinced it’s not a big deal.
- kls 7y agojust wanted to make sure that I noted that I was not implying that they where not, both acid rain and ozone depletion where real issues, they where also issues that where overblown in their day. My intent was to highlight that AGW is just as overblown and exploited as they where in their day. Attributing Hurricane cycles to AGW is nonsense. Anyone that has lived in a hurricane prone area for more than 2 decades knows we are heading into another active cycle. I mean it's an absolutely known thing: http://www.davidmcminn.com/p2/956hurricanes.htm http://www.davidmcminn.com/p2/956hurricanes.htm https://journals.ametsoc.org/doi/full/10.1175/1520-0442%281999%29012%3C0427%3AFINAHF%3E2.0.CO%3B2 https://journals.ametsoc.org/doi/full/10.1175/1520-0442%2819... and it was well known by the old timers before anyone put any science behind it. And is pretty much tribal knowledge to anyone that is a long time Florida resident.
