Are Hurricanes Getting Stronger Or Not?
The Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) maintains a subsite dedicated to the increasing risk of “more intense hurricanes that carry higher wind speeds and more precipitation as a result of global warming.” In their view, hurricanes are not getting more frequent, just more destructive.
The Implausibility of the Greenhouse Effect On Ocean Temperature
According to an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) whitepaper from 2016, total ocean heat content has grown since 1970 by between 100 and 200 zettajoules (10^21). The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) currently lists it at over 320 zettajoules
Antarctica Has Not Seen the Same Temperature Increase, Sea Ice Decline As the Arctic
Over the past several decades, the Arctic has seen consistent warming linked to the decline in Arctic sea ice. The years 2020 and 2019 had the second and third lowest measurements of sea ice extent on record based on analysis from Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA)
NASA Data Also Shows the Significant Rise in Solar Radiation
In 2003, the National Aeronautic and Space Administration (NASA) developed the Prediction of Worldwide Energy Resources (POWER) project to provide better meteorological data and understanding for renewable energy, sustainable buildings, and agroclimatology.
The Changing Angle of the Sun and Its Effect on Temperature
Over the last four centuries, the sun in the northern hemisphere is getting progressively higher in the sky. Based on data from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL)’s Solar Position Algorithm, the average surface incidence angle—the angle that solar rays intersect with the Earth, or the inverse of the solar zenith—has steadily increased deca…
