    You seem very defensive and are making up a lot of stuff....why?

    What have I made up exactly and what do you consider defensive? Baseless allegations are fun but don't contribute to debate.

    Ah the old incredibly stupid anyone who says something that doesn't that doesn't agree with preconceived notions is a cult.

    You mean like the baseless allegations presented in this thread?

    That is silly.... why not ignore it

    Some science is settled.i can describe an experiment you can do yourself.... or just watch a YouTube video... to confirm the greenhouse characteristics of co2
    I am literally not aware of any scientist who disputes this
    How much mire settled does so anything need to be?

    Certainly no scientist says this.... so again it is silly
    Otoh, the long term impacts of climate change are uncertain. And one of the possibilities is that the earth would be far less suited to human habitation
    Agw theory has been known and studied for 150 years. What you call a cult is just a different way of you acknowledging that there is an overwhelming consensus of climate scientists on this issue

    And yet here we are have a nice conversation
    You are not shunned

    If you want i can give you links to people who listen to “non believers”. But come to opposite conclusions for reasons that they explain in detail. Just because you listen to someone does not require that you agree with them

    Again i point out that your reaction to this seems alarmist

    And back to the OP. The hurricane season is a bust which is bad news for the cult that loves devastating hurricanes so they can say "see, global warming" .

    You evidently have forgotten that cyclones are still hurricanes and they still are having problems in Asia from the storms.

    Which obviously delights you. Thanks for making my point for me. Unfortunately for you the US the hurricane season is a bust and your media who was hoping for a bunch of huge hurricanes in order to push the cult agenda is left covering Russian collusion. Oh whoops, that's also gone. LOL

    Yeah, but you guys are always wanting some reason that agw will be bad to “prove”. That it is happening and that it is a problem.

    Re hurricanes.
    There is a very long history of variability in number and severity. And you KNOW dang well that even if there were lots of hurricanes you would not be convinced of anything. So why are we even talking about this

    Just pointing out the fact that yet another one of the cults doomsday predictions has fallen flat and laughing at their disappointment.

    Down here at 31 degrees latitude near the Gulf I have never begun to breathe easy until Nov. 1st.

    It takes just one big churn if it has got your latitude and longitude.

    It has been remarkably quiet so far this year, however.

    Still been prepping and have 60 gallons of gasoline on hand. The least that can happen is feed it to the truck come November.

    Pops was the same, always prepared, ready to live in a tent for while.

    I guess we will ignore the last couple of years of historic storm numbers in the Pacific and the Indian Ocean so that you can pretend to know what the **** you are talking about.

    Something tells me it's never entered your head to consider the extent of our record keeping as regards tropical cyclones.

    It sounds like your pleasure far exceeds anyones disappointment. But everyone gets pleasure as suits them.... even if that meand finding pleasure in the real, or imagined, disappointments of others

    I am happy for you to have found your happiness

    Please dont Jinx us, Hurricane Irma hit our city, 100 miles from landfall (after making a beeline, straight towards us) on 9/10/17. We have a ways to go yet. There is a system they may effect the outerbanks, in the Atlantic, right now (however weak)

    I'm not a 'climate change' chicken little, but a lifelong Fl resident.

    Okay, now you've done it. This is really going to piss off all the republican voters in San Francisco. It doesn't take much to trigger them about the weather, ya know.

    The Democratic National Committee's summer meeting in San Francisco erupted into a hail of protests on Thursday, as unruly environmentalist activists condemned the party's decision not to hold a presidential primary debate focused exclusively on climate change — a demand long sought by left-wing activists.

    Two of the three major ocean systems have had record breaking storm activity for the last two years and for you that is proof positive that scientists were wrong about storm activity increasing ... just got to say, that’s some weird ass logic you got going there.

    Doesn't matter, obviously. What matters is how many years of accurate global tropical cyclone records we have.

    It's all random, nothing else. Not a damn thing anyone can do about it except be prepared to live through it as best you can.

    Now it's Yellowstone. Big volcanic eruption being talked up. Nothing can be done. Hot lava is much harder on live meat than wind and water.

    The irony. Since he's a member of those who are most likely to actually deny the actual science.. Poor Chuck. Doesn't understand the difference between propaganda (of his own making) and science. Chuck won't actually admit that his agenda driven hate isn't up for actual debate. He's a hater, a denier, and gosh durnit, he's proud of it.

    I see...so rather than try to defend your position you just make up a new one with a tie in to the character who destroyed your first one?

    We are obviously done here...Have A Nice Day:)

    Happy to defend my position. The science is actually very clear here. What is transparent and obvious is that AGW advocates have simply made up data to support their political agenda. Chuck cheerleads for that because he's a devotee of the agenda. I can defend that all day long. So, probably, you are done here. Ta.
