It can really no longer be considered a science, alarmists, not when anthropogenic global warming seems to be the root cause of freaking everything
Earthquakes and tsunamis are just the tip of the iceberg as climate change could lead to more “hazardous†geological events like volcanoes and landslides, experts have warned.
While rising temperature are predicted to cause the melting of ice, rise in sea level, heavy storms and rainfall, the Earth’s crust can be affected by all these phenomenon, according to papers published by the Royal Society. Even minor changes in the environment could spark off earthquakes and tsunamis.
Guess what? Except for the rise in sea level, the same things can happen during cooler periods. How about one of the largest ever in human history, Mt. Tambora? During the Little Ice Age. Krakatoa? Right at the end of the LIA. GrÃmsvötn? Long Island (Papua New Guinea)? Kolumbo? Bárðarbunga? All LIA time period. In fact, some of the deadliest volcanic eruptions over the past 2,000 years occurred during cooling periods. Of course, climate data is virtually non-existent prior to the Medieval Climate Optimum, but, if the pattern holds, it was probably cooler when Mt. Vesuvius blew its top in 79 A.D. It doesn’t matter.
Deadliest earthquake ever? 1556 Shaanxi earthquake. Doesn’t matter. Because the Earth is always in motion, as it has been for over 4 billion years. Linking natural disasters to climate change, and especially man induced global warming, is an exercise in make believe and supposition, with a heavy dose of unprovable garbage in garbage out logic. It would be like me blaming the geese in the pond out back for the house down the street burning down the other year. And saying that they are the cause of other homes not burning down.
Then again, one should never trust a goose. Tricky bastards, one and all.
