Evidence for your assertions, please
While there is at least weak scientific evidence that man contributes to global warming (I do not trust it, but at least some studies try to make the point), there is none for climate change causing weather events like hurricanes. One of the leading world experts on hurricanes, Dr. William Grey, has repeated pointed out that it is global temperature differentials that cause hurricanes. Since global warming impacts the poles faster than the equater, by definition global warming will decrease hurricane activity.

Oddly enough, even with current warming, we have seen no change in hurricane activity (actually a slight decline). I have no problem with the topics the blog chooses to cover, but please be careful about the assertions made. There is a real debate to be had over climate change, but in blurring facts and reality the seriousness and usefulness of the debate is destroyed.
