The study did not conclude more hurricanes. Unfortunately, uneducated people and journalists read single sentence in a summary and write entire articles about incorrect conclusions. Climate change won't alter what is needed for a hurricane to form like low shear and a lack of dry air advection. They also don't change steering currents and formation locations. Once they do form, a much larger percentage of them will be major. We have been incredibly lucky in that most large hurricanes that have formed this year have remained away from the coasts of the US.

And yes, 193 of 196 countries signed the Paris Climate agreement. Edit: what I read was wrong. The only non-signatories are Iraq, Syria, Nicaragua and Uzbekistan.

Here's a good article to read in the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists from Cook. I know you don't like him and think he's a fraud, but at least read it.

How was he out of line? Trump didn't save 1100 jobs. Many of those jobs he claimed to save were staying in Indiana anyways. I think his comments are more than warranted. And companies don't leave a place because the unions don't go a good enough job representing their workers. They leave when they do too good of a job.

Cow farts.

No word yet on how the snowflakes intend to regulate human farts. But don't worry, they'll think of something.

The union boss was out of line for pointing out the inconvenient truth? How dare him make an issue out of Trump getting the Carrier employees' hopes up by lying about how many jobs were actually going to be kept in Indiana.

Please, don't ever do any union work.
