“There is absolutely no empirical evidence. The people who
have a bias in favor of the argument that humans are making
the globe warmer will push any data that suggests that humans
are making hurricanes worse, but it just isn’t so,” said William
Gray, a Colorado State University meteorologist who is
considered one of the fathers of modern tropical cyclone science...
“A lot of my colleagues who have been around a long time are
very skeptical of this idea that global warming is leading to more
frequent or intense storms,” Gray said. “In the Atlantic, there has
been a change recently, sure. But if you go back to the 1930s,
you see a lot of storms again. These are natural cycles, not
related to changes in global temperature. I can’t say there is
no human signal there, but it’s minute.”

Or the work of Gaia.

Or open your Whole Earth Catalog and smoke some

and an even bigger connection between riding a bike
and erectile dysfunction. Tax the bikers to pay for
their increased medical costs!
