Sandy was just a category 1 hurricane, and not very menacing,
as hurricanes go. Hurricanes have been occurring on the planet since it became a planet with water and wind.
Climate change had nothing to do with the disaster. Mother nature just has a way of making the inevitable happen.
Sandy would have just been another hurricane which came and went, were it not for the convergence of multiple storm systems, which is not something that happens often, but is know to happen, and was predicted to happen.
Were it not for the inland storm with a high pressure system sucking Sandy back over the land mass of the U.S., Sandy would have disappeared into the north Atlantic, with no damage at all to the northeast U.S.
Climate change happens, but, climate change has happened forever, and the events of this week, were not because of any man-induced catastrophe. It was overdue to happen, and it did this week.
Now, the global warming doom-and-gloom charlatans want to take this catastrophe to advance their junk science, and to blame the "deniers", which include some very good scientists and most meteorologists. The junk science of global warming, is more of an agenda item than real science, and it's mostly proposed by journalists and liberal politicians and university professors looking for research funding from government.
As long as their is a planet, with water and wind and a moon and a sun to stir things up, there will be hurricanes and other major catastrophes, none of which will be preventable by anything that humans can do.
