In danger of letting politics lead science? It's been happening for a long time. It's just that this time it is having a catastrophic effect.

'people are starting to notice' says that daft woman. Could that be something to do with the fact that film of a tornado halfway round the planet can appear on your computer or TV screen either live or just minutes later? Could 24-hour news have something to do with the perpetual display of 'disasters' on-screen? And let's not forget the perpetual left-wing 'we're all going to die unless the state controls all' bias of the likes of the BBC.

Climate change denial has no place in the world today and I hope this video is not attempting to put validity towards that. While the frequency of major weather events may not be increasing as much as we are told in the press, global warming is undoubted occurring and its effects are evident in other less obvious forms. The reason politicians and the press, maybe charities even, focus on the big, obvious things is to motivate the less intelligent or rational into positive behavioural change.

Put simply David Whitehouse is a denier and this is a denier video thinly disguised as science.
The GWPF is like the Heatland, uh, Heartland Institute, an arm of Koch industries and the like.
Whitehouse himself has no compunction when it comes to misinterpreting other scientists or even slandering them.

" the frequency of major weather events may not be increasing as much as we are told in the press, global warming is undoubted occurring and its effects are evident in other less obvious forms". this is called moving the goal posts. there has been NO increase in sea temps in last 16 years, so now the posts are movd to extreme weather and yet as she says herself, its an incomplete data set (ie: no historical records of weather). reporting more often what naturally occurs is NOT an increase.
