LOL, that blog is very misleading and dishonest. The extracts from the IPCC reports are talking about historical trends, which have no bearing on FUTURE risks. The IPCC report correctly states that already we have increase risk of extreme weather events and note that they're already happening. The risk goes to severe with more warming.

  • Extreme weather events: Climate-change-related risks from extreme events, such as heat waves, extreme precipitation, and coastal flooding, are already moderate (high confidence) and high with 1°C additional warming (medium confidence). Risks associated with some types of extreme events (e.g., extreme heat) increase further at higher temperatures (high confidence).


  • They outline the risks in greater detail here:

    You're no expert and certainly are easily fooled by the nonsense the denier camp puts out.
