Climate Change Could Make Hurricanes Strongerand More Frequent

Add one more environmental disaster to the list of potential dire consequences of the greenhouse effect. A general warming of the earth because of increasing amounts of carbon dioxide and other gases in the atmosphere might not only melt the polar ice caps and drastically alter weather patterns but cause more ferocious storms. Writing in Nature, M.I.T. Meteorologist Kerry Emanuel warned that a warmer climate could result in hurricanes packing up to 50% more destructive power. This could happen, he suggests, within 40 to 80 years, when some scientists think CO2 levels will have doubled and ocean temperatures will have increased...
Environment: More Violent Hurricanes? - TIME
About the future
"Based on a range of models, it is likely that future tropical cyclones (typhoons and hurricanes) will become more intense, with larger peak wind speeds and more heavy precipitation associated with ongoing increases of tropical SSTs. There is less confidence in projections of a global decrease in numbers of tropical cyclones. The apparent increase in the proportion of very intense storms since 1970 in some regions is much larger than simulated by current models for that period."

That enough for you?![]()
Okay, they COULD. And they did make them more frequent.
What is your point? And where is the quote from Hansen that you claim. Meteorologist Kerry Emanuel isn't Hansen, now is he? That was your claim.
This is another example of your inability to distinguish between people. Emanuel isn't Hansen. You can tell because one starts with the letter "E" and one with an "H".
You are unable to focus on details.
And you can't follow directions.. Told you I posted a Vid of Hansen making EVERY SORT of outrageous claims to promote hysteria..

Do hang in there until he winds up to preacher strength and foretells the BOILING OF THE OCEANS... (not funny, he's sick)
Media MISINTERPRETATIONS AND PURPOSEFUL misuse of this kind of hysteria is YOUR responsibility. Because you support this unprofessional vague fortune telling..
Not my fault you only "research" stuff that supports your preconceived agenda.. Do your own work...

It's clear that you wish that what he says is an extreme possibility won't happen. He offers a scenario that could lead to the end of life. Your point is only that you don't like that ending.
Nobody is arguing that that's a desirable ending. The argument is that even if it's a remote possibility, let's make it as remote as possible.
