The world is presently in an era of unusually low weather disasters. This holds for the weather phenomena that have historically caused the most damage: tropical cyclones, floods, tornadoes and drought. Given how weather events have become politicized in debates over climate change, some find this hard to believe. Fortunately, government and IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) analyses allow such claims to be adjudicated based on science, and not politics.* Here I briefly summarize recent relevant data.
Every six months Munich Re publishes a tally of the costs of disasters around the world for the past half year. This is an excellent resource for tracking disaster costs over time.* The data allows us to compare disaster costs to global GDP, to get a sense of the magnitude of these costs in the context of economic activity.* Using data from the UN, here is how that data looks since 1990, when we have determined that data is most reliable and complete.

Link up.
No one said that.
Yea...remember Gary Hart?Times change, what was once acceptable is taboo today and what is acceptable now was once taboo.
Hadn't heard of him in a long time. Incredible isn't it.Yea...remember Gary Hart?
Here is just one. There are many, many times he stated that. http://scienceline.org/2008/12/ask-rettner-sea-level-rise-al-gore-an-inconvenient-truth/
Changing Climate: Ten Years After Vice President, Nobel Prize Winner, and Academy Award Winner Al Gore's Movie.
In the 10 years since the movie sparked increased public discussion, climate scientists have made major advances. More observations, faster climate-simulating computers and an improved understanding of the planet’s inner workings now provide a clearer window on how Earth’s climate will change.
Some of the bold forecasts of the 2006 movie are holding, and others are on an accelerated track. A few of the most dire warnings need revising, says Thompson, at Ohio State University in Columbus. And plenty of questions remain. In a controversial paper in March in Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, researchers argued that the effects of climate change could be even more severe and sudden than current predictions.
While a lot has changed, the fundamental understanding of climate change, dating back to the 19th century recognition that carbon dioxide warms the planet, has held strong, he says.
“The physics and chemistry that we’ve known about for over 200 years is bearing out,” Thompson says. “We’ve learned so much in the last 10 years, but the fact that the unprecedented climate change of the last 40 years is being driven by increased CO2 hasn’t changed.”
The far-reaching effects of climate change — from ocean acidification to disrupted ecosystems — are too numerous to examine all at once. But below are a few of the areas where climate scientists have made significant progress since 2006.

It's worth just reflecting on how much better off this nation would be if former Vice President of the United States, Nobel prize winner, and Academy award winner Al Gore had been in the Oval Office, instead of the guy you voted for: the disastrous George Dumyba Bush.
You truly are a simpleton.
Flaccid retort.
Denying climate science is so 1998. Luckily, the world has moved beyond you climate deniers. I leave you to your obscure, climate denying websites and rightwing conspiracy blogs.
Who is denying it? Once again, you are a simpleton. Actually just a fucking idiot.
I am aware you deniers have been moving the goal posts, backpedaling, and back tracking. Let's point out that you voted for a guy who said global warming was a Chinese hoax.
All I ever have seen from you deniers are threads that deny, downplay, or denigrate climate science.
I'd appreciate it if you could link to a few threads you personally started, in which you articulated that human induced climate changes is a serious environmental concern.

You do realize you are just talking to yourself right? Making no sense? Referencing things and people that have nothing to do with me? And even taking the time to put things in italics. You should see a shrink. Seriously. There is something drastically, mentally wrong with you. A complete, irrational meltdown.
I am a partisan hack. Truth is not valued by ME AT ALL.
Why is it that everyone who makes valid points that undermine your positions is met, rather than with concession and counterpoint, are called mental, stupid, poor and miserable.
You should acknowledge your own issues to yourself, foremost is being an asshole.
Finally seeing a therapist huh? It seems to helping.
Nope. Any issues I have have nada to do with intellectual integrity. You, not so much.
What valid points? Only a fucking partisan lunatic would consider any of that "valid points".
