Dishonest Climate Fear-mongering headline of the week goes to USA TODAY for posting:
Dramatic flooding was rare in Vermont’s capital. Expect it more amid climate change.
Similar catastrophic claims were suggested throughout the click-bait media-verse from the NY Times, the Washington Post, CNN, etc, etc Rarely does the media provide a scientific historical context, preferring to weaponize weather
But if you read the article Climate Variability and Socioeconomic Consequences of Vermont’s Natural Hazards: A Historical Perspective published by the Vermont Historical Society in 2002, you would realize the natural truth of Vermont’s flooding.
The article states: “One of the most pervasive hazards that impinges upon and marks the Vermont landscape is flooding… Rarely does a year elapse without a flooding event of a significant magnitude being reported in at least one of Vermont’s fourteen counties or perhaps statewide, making this the number-one hazard across the state.
Complex topographic barriers such as the Green Mountains and Taconics produces enhanced precipitation totals… Vermont’s steep V-shaped valleys help to constrain the flow, creating remarkable depths of flow at tremendous speeds. As far back as 1853, Zadock Thompson noted these topographic characteristics along the Winooski, Lamoille, and Missisquoi rivers, such that by default, roads could only be constructed along the open valley floors, making them susceptible to flooding damage.
The Great Flood of 1927 resulted from record rainfall totals produced by tropical storm remnants on November 3, following October precipitation totals that were already 50 percent above normal. As this decaying storm tracked directly along the spine of the Green Mountains, streams rose so rapidly that there was little time for warning.
The Winooski River rose 40–45 feet above its normal level, causing an estimated $30 million in economic losses. The Montgomery flood of July 15, 1997 , In the towns of Montgomery, Montgomery Center, Lowell, and Wolcott at least 6 inches of rain fell in less than six hours.
You had to figure it would take long for them to blame this whole thing of Global Warming/Climate Change now that the Globalists want to control our very lives over this total lie but as see in Ireland like in the Netherlands the Farmers are not going to sit by and allow the Green Globalists to destroy their ways of making a living over a totally fake Threat the Eco-Nazis/Watermelons are painting themselves into a Corner
Man made global climate change is a hoax. Man cannot control or change the climate.
…nor do cigarettes cause cancer, emphysema, or heart disease. And COVID vaccine killed more people than COVID…
…also, that the wealthiest have grabbed nearly two-thirds of all new wealth since 2020 has nothing to do with the difficulties of anyone else.
Richest 1% bag nearly twice as much wealth as the rest of the world put together over the past two years
06/21/23 – Sea level has increased 3.5 inches over the past 30 years.

By the way, the current record heat isn’t confined to the United States, nor are uncontrolled wildfires or groundwater depletion. It’s all part of an accelerating trend related to global climate change caused by human activity.
Your linked article leads one to the “renewable” solution which of course isn’t a solution at all.

Wow shock with the billions tossed around by our government.
I’d give it to Forbes

who exactly was keeping temperature 100 thousand years ago?
was this caused by prehistoric cows?
