World Weather Attribution

Welcome to my "invisible" blog. Here is a recent quote from an article that caught my attention:

“Human-caused climate change has doubled the likelihood of a storm like this week's deluge in Valencia, according to a rapid but partial analysis Thursday by World Weather Attribution, comprising dozens of international scientists who study global warming's role in extreme weather.”

"A rapid but partial analysis" by this World Weather Attribution organization came up an almost instant DOUBLING of the likelihood. TREBLING or QUADRUPLING could have been inserted instead but DOUBLING was deemed strong enough I guess. Clearly this multiplication factor of 2 was snatched out of "thin air" to use a meteorologically sounding metaphor.

Every extreme weather event and every locality experiencing its highest temperature is now claimed to be the result of "human-caused climate change". The message is relentlessly repeated in the mainstream media and a lie that is repeated often enough become the truth. Usually comments come from "climate change experts", "climate scientists" and the like but setting up some important sounding organization like World Weather Attribution also works. The name lends itself to the snappy-sounding acronym WWA.

The organization is not afraid of spitting out multiplication factors. Here's another example:

For example, in July 2021, just 11 days after temperatures in Pacific northwest areas of the U.S. and Canada reached high above 40ºC, shattering records by as much as 5ºC, a WWA study found that climate change made the heatwave at least 150 times more likely and 2ºC more intense. 

Yes, "climate change made the heatwave 150 times more likely" rather than just two times more likely as was the case with the Valencia floods, although it is not mentioned if the incident was "human-caused". Well, let's finish with another quote from their website:

Since its inception in 2014, WWA has now performed more than 80 attribution studies on heatwaves, drought, wildfire, storms and extreme rainfall events around the world. The methods used have advanced over the years and have been published in the peer-reviewed scientific literature together with many of the studies of individual events.

WWA receives funding from the Grantham Institute, the European Climate Foundation and the Bezos Earth Foundation.

Probably the studies will "attribute" all the events to human-caused climate change and the "methods" will be questionable to say the least. Of course, in one sense, deliberate human-caused climate change is possible via chemtrails, HAARP and other technologies. Maybe human intervention did double the likelihood of a storm! We live in interesting times.
