This is a good link even if I feel like I am ****ing in the wind-- so to speak-- arguing it on Talk of the Villages.

That link is a perfect example of misinformation. 1. Notice the hurricane graph in that C2ES article -- the data starts at 1950 when in reality we have hurricane data going back to the mid-1800s. They are hiding data showing high storm levels prior to 1950. 2. That graph only reflects the North Atlantic storms which is not a prime indicator of "global" storms. 3. All hurricane data before 1970 is incomplete, because many storms in the Eastern North Atlantic were not detectable until the global 24/7 use of geostationary (GOES) satellites in the 70s. In other words the C2ES graph shows apples & oranges. 4. Those 2 orange lines drawn across the C2ES graph are opinions -- and they have no scientific meaning. 5. Christiana Figueres is frequently honored and referenced in numerous C2ES events and publications. She was the United Nations' architect of the Paris Climate Agreement. She said this in 2016 about her work ... "Part of my commitment to the public good is through common goals that can only be best reached by working together – if that’s called communism so be it."
