  1. Climate change does not bring more extreme weather.

  2.  @antred11  The UN's IPCC AR6 WG1, chapter 12 "Climate Change Information for Regional Impact and for Risk Assessment", page 1856, section 12.5.2, table 12.12 confirms there is a lack of evidence or no signal that the following have changed: Air Pollution Weather (temperature inversions), Aridity, Avalanche (snow), Average precipitation, Average Wind Speed, Coastal Flood, Agricultural drought, Hydrological drought, Erosion of Coastlines, Fire Weather (hot and windy), Flooding From Heavy Rain (pluvial floods), Frost, Hail, Heavy Rain, Heavy Snowfall and Ice Storms, Landslides, Marine Heatwaves, Ocean Acidity, Radiation at the Earth’s Surface, River/Lake Floods, Sand and Dust Storms, Sea Level, Severe Wind Storms, Snow, Glacier, and Ice Sheets, Antarctic Sea Ice, Tropical Cyclones.

  3.  @antred11  Look again.. The UN's IPCC AR6 WG1, chapter 12 "Climate Change Information for Regional Impact and for Risk Assessment", page 1856, section 12.5.2, table 12.12 confirms evidence is lacking or the signal is not present, leading to overall low confidence of an emerging signal both for the recent past or by 2050 even under the most extreme climate modelling (RCP 8.5): Air Pollution Weather (temperature inversions), Aridity, Avalanche (snow), Average Wind Speed, Coastal Flood, Agricultural drought, Hydrological drought, Erosion of Coastlines, Fire Weather (hot and windy), Flooding From Heavy Rain (pluvial floods), Frost, Hail, Heavy Rain, Heavy Snowfall and Ice Storms, Landslides, Marine Heatwaves, Radiation at the Earth’s Surface, River/Lake Floods, Sand and Dust Storms, Severe Wind Storms, Glacier, and Ice Sheets, Tropical Cyclones.

  4. @antred11  You missed the differences between the two posts. Both are correct, but perhaps a little too subtle for you. What I'm doing is clearly referencing a major report by a clearly biased alarmist organisation, and I am showing that even the scientists working for them cannot demonstrate any man-made effect on nearly all the climate impact drivers. There is no climate emergency. Anybody can research this for themselves, and should. They shouldn't take mine, yours, or anybody else's word for it.
