This is global warming, says environmental chief As Hurricane Rita threatens devastation, scientist blames climate change Super-powerful hurricanes now hitting the United States are the "smoking gun" of global warming, one of Britain's leading scientists believes. The growing violence of storms such as Katrina, which wrecked New Orleans, and Rita, now threatening Texas, is very probably caused by climate change, said Sir John Lawton, chairman of the Royal Commission on Environmental Pollution. Hurricanes were getting more intense, just as computer models predicted they would, because of the rising temperature of the sea, he said. "The increased intensity of these kinds of extreme storms is very likely to be due to global warming." Then he goes on to talk about you: He said: "There are a group of people in various parts of the world ... who simply don't want to accept human activities can change climate and are changing the climate." "I'd liken them to the people who denied that smoking causes lung cancer." news.independent.co.uk
