Slightly better science and spin.
They concluded that the heat waves during those years would not have occurred were it not for the greenhouse gases warming our planet.
Again, a rather bold statement that cannot be verified through scientific means.
At least these conclusions are arrived at directly with data instead of contrived models build upon preconceived conclusions that selectively use data to confirm themselves.
And of course, this only make headlines because we've just been through a heat wave and drought. We all know that the next time a cold wave hits, that we'll be reminded by these same people that "weather is not climate".
