What about trends in drought? Again, the IPCC expresses "low confidence" in trends in drought Low confidence = 20%pic.twitter.com/1avVUDMa0Z
Why does the IPCC reach this conclusion about lack of trends in global drought? Data.pic.twitter.com/lUVzFKYXEY
What about drought trends in the US? EPA (using NOAA data) concludes that there are no overall trends.pic.twitter.com/CrHOGyBPVC
Yes, but what about drought trends in western North America? IPCC addresses this alsopic.twitter.com/CJhyBP50Jz
Some concluding thoughts to this quick data review of extreme events. 1. Mainstream science, incl IPCC & peer reviewed lit, is very clear.
2. With possible exceptions of extreme temps & precip, very little evidence to support claims of more TCs, floods, tornadoes, drought.
3. This is good science, but it is a taboo subject to discuss among many in the climate advocacy, science and media communities.
4. Those who have hijacked the climate issue can call me names, go after my career, and make rape-y jokes. But science don't care, y'all.
5. The science of extreme events & climate change has been hijacked. But solid evidence is there for those who want to look. Enjoy! -FIN-
PS. I am happy to hear responses (agree or disagree, it's OK) and I'll RT them to facilitate discussion. Thx
thanks so much for a fascinating thread
