Hurricane Florence, September 2018 |
The apparent policy of the Biden Administration was to lie, lie again, and lie some more about everything everywhere. So, hurricanes became objects of hysterical theatrics, with each one that reached at least Category 3 status. It then got to the point where a Category 3 hurricane in the Pacific Ocean was now being called "a Super Typhoon."
Well, the Biden Administration made a huge deal out of Ian, a 2022 hurricane. It's speakers didn't mention that, time after time, while still travelling in the Atlantic, a hurricane has been known to reach a Cat 5 Speed, very briefly and very temporarily. Well, Ian made landfall as a Cat 3, not as the End of the World.
As land is approached ... or as a northward direction is traveled ... hurricanes have been known to tone-down. This is why a total of 4 ... and no more than 4 hurricanes ... made landfall upon the continental United States at the Cat 5 status, since 1851.
And remember, this has been written by someone who lived in one of America's Hurricane Alleys, throughout a ten-year period. He knows what to except, through first-hand experience. Let us begin, shall we?
The 2022 Hurricane Season was average in its number of storms --- only slightly below average. It's Accumulated Cyclone Energy (A.C.E.) scale number was moderately sub-average, at 95.1. Average is 115. The year with the highest index number was 1933, at 258.57. The Year 1926 was close, at 229.55. Yet, the Year 2005 was even closer, at 250.12.
None the less, some of the most furious hurricane seasons transpired while atmospheric co2 levels were a lot lower than today. This topic has been repeatedly addressed in specificity, at the Blue Marble Album. The top right-hand corner is where this website's search box is located, for those who really do care to learn a few extra things about life --- or a few needed things about life.
For those with short memories, there was only ONE major hurricane in 2022. In fact, in the entire history of the United States, a grand total of FOUR category 5 hurricanes made landfall upon the continental United States.
Keep in mind that Al Gore told the world that, from 2006 and onward, the Category 6 hurricane would become the frequent norm. Gore was completely wrong. The past 18 years proved this to have been the case. Gore turned out to be a false prophet, even though he acted as if all that he predicted finally came true in 2022.
Well firstly, heated summers have occurred throughout recorded history, as has been illustrated at the Blue Marble Album and elsewhere. And secondly, in 2021, the Antarctic had its coldest Winter in all of recorded history. There is no way that overwhelming "global warming" is going to prevail throughout the world, when at least one of its polar caps hosts the coldest season in history.
Concerning the A.C.E., it's the sum total of knots squared ... divided by 10,000 ... when measuring a cyclone's rotating wind speed every six hours. By the way, a knot is 1.15 miles per hour. Thus, 26 knots = 30 miles, and 80 knots is exactly 92 miles.
The A.C.E. used to be called the Cyclone Destructive Potential Scale. In fact, it's technically known as the Integrated Kinetic Energy Index.
Distinguishing Feature of 2022 Season: It was the first season in 25 years, where there was no named storm throughout the entire month of August. That doesn't sound much like a climate crisis. Previously, this happened in 1997 and 1961.
The irony is that, during July and August of the same year, the media was announcing that the world was literally on fire, due to the burning of fossil fuels. Detailed proof that this was a huge lie --- as it concerned the Greater London geography --- was published exclusively, at the Blue Marble Album, a few days after the very misleading and hysteric newscasts were aired. Everyone else was way behind in uncovering the truth about today's Climate Liars & their false-light July reports.
In brevity, there is a sensible reason to explain why there were no storms in August of 2022. ANS: Whenever such a thing occurs, it's always due to STRONGER VERTICAL WIND SHEAR (which see.) Of course, it's also due to the vague-sounding "greater atmospheric stability."
If the Climate scenario of 2022 were as dire as the commercial media mouthpieces made it out to be, there would NOT have been a stormless August in the same 2022. There would not have been the record cold weather in Australia, and there would not have been the series of record colds elsewhere on Earth in the first half of 2022, including Brazil. And there certainly would not have been the most coral cover throughout the Great Barrie Reef in 36 years.
The 2022 replenishment of coral occurred in two of the three sectors of the reef. The other third of the reef became a buffet table for hungry crown-of-thorn starfish. Starfish did it; NOT co2 or any other greenhouse gas. Incidentally, 90% of all greenhouse gases (by volume) is Water Vapor. Water vapor carries zero carbon footprint.
Of course, those who line their pockets & pocketbooks with taxpayer dollars say that every year is the hottest year thus far. Well, constantly stating this is an indictment upon the NOAA & NASA & government advisor scientists. They say things are getting hotter, but they do nothing to make things cooler, after 34 years of hype that began with Jim Hansen in a senate subcommittee hearing (in June 1988). Thus, their value, by their own admission, is nihil ... at least nil.
In as much, if every year is the hottest, year after year, then who needs any government scientist who do nothing to reverse the trend that they claim is occurring? But of course, their doomsday claims come with altered data ... with their "amended" charts & graphs, all of which, when revised, ever-so-coincidentally show that the Earth is burning-up and melting away. The same charts show opposite of what newspapers reported in the 1910s, 1920s, and 1930s. Outdoor workers entirely disagree with cozy nerd-boy scientists whose alteration of raw data is their greatest accomplishment.
Of course, the raw temperature data is altered by the government, via "homogenization." The government does NOT show the raw data to the public. It only shows the altered data. Dishonest people never show honest things to the public.
Anyway, the dishonest media claimed that hurricanes are now rougher and more frequent. Well, there were below-average years and above-average years of recent ... and throughout the past. There is no rising pattern and no decreasing pattern more than a few consecutive years at a time. Climate is cyclical, look a roller coaster, and sometimes mankind gets taken for a ride of historic proportions.
At other times, there is a lull in weather events. For example, there was a 12 year period when no major hurricane made landfall in the United States. That went from the end of Wilma, in 2005, until the arrival of Hurricane Harvey, in August of 2017. Of course, the commercial media didn't present this fact in bright neon.
Since then, there has been a trend toward more named storms, but not the Category 6 storms Al Gore predicted. Actually, in the past three years, there have been more of those low-intensity storms called Tropical Storms (the chart is posted below). Such a storm has a max wind speed of 39 to 73 miles per hour . That's something very survivable.
And concerning the commercial media's constant claim that hurricane numbers are increasing, ===> it only takes one hurricane to kill you. Even at that, a tornado can kill you a whole lot faster and much more forcefully than a hurricane. And the great irony here is that, in order for a deadly tornado to be formed, you need a COLD front. Yes, cold air can be very deadly. We live on Planet Earth. None of us is getting out of here alive. That's the reality check. The ultimate question is: What's beyond the horizon? What's beyond every horizon in the universe? Where do we go from here?
The strongest Atlantic Hurricane in terms of wind speed did not form in this decade or in the last one. It appeared 42 years ago, when co2 was 337 parts per million, and therefore 79 ppm lower than today.
The strongest hurricane in known history was Atlantic Ocean Hurricane Allen, in 1980 (Forty-two years ago --- a half a lifetime ago.) It's wind speed was 190 miles per hour (mph). This negates the claim that hurricanes are only now more furious than in decades past, due to the rise in atmospheric co2 levels. In the Autumn of 1980, co2 was 337 parts per million. That's 79 ppm LOWER than today. The Pacific Ocean typhoons were more powerful than the Atlantic cyclones. This is already covered elsewhere at the Blue Marble Album.
More Examples
The second most powerful hurricane in terms of wind speed is a four-way tie. Four hurricanes traveled at 185 mph. This included: 1} The 1935 Labor Day Hurricane, when the atmospheric co2 level was 309 ppm and therefore 107 ppm lower than today. 2} Gilbert in 1988, when co2 levels were 350 ppm and therefore 66 ppm lower than today. 3} Dorian in 2019. 4} Wilma in 2005.
As further examples, there were 175 mph hurricanes as far back as 1932, 1955, 1969, 1977, & 1979. Plus, there were hurricanes of the same speed as recent as 2005, 2007, and 2017. All in all, the media is making it sound as if all of the most powerful hurricanes occurred in the past five to ten years, and that is a huge falsehood. There is NO CORRELATION between atmospheric co2 levels and hurricane frequency ... and also hurricane intensity.
Here's another example: Below is a list of the most powerful hurricane seasons. Keep in mind that the ACE column on the chart stands for Accumulated Cyclone Energy.
Now, as far as concerns the single most energy-filled hurricane in history (assessed by measuring wind speed every 6 hours) it was the 910 millibar Hurricane Ivan, in 2004. It killed 64 in the Caribbean and 25 in the United States.
But, as far as goes the most energy-endowed hurricane seasons, they included the Years 1893, 1926, 1933, 1950, and 1961. That's 63 to 131 years ago, when co2 levels were significantly lower than today. They also included recent years, as in 1998, 2004, 2005, and 2017. (Add the Year 2020, as the tenth most active season on record.) So, things come close enough to becoming balanced, when comparing the power of hurricanes of old and the power of hurricanes of new. That illustrates that there is NO immediate ocean-related climate crisis.
Take note that the Year 2020 has replaced 1998, as the 10th most energy-powered hurricane season on record. It's A.C.E. was 184. It hosted 16 tropical storms and 14 hurricanes, 6 of which were major ones. It had two more storms than the #2 most powerful A.C.E. season. It had 10 more storms than the #1 most-energetic season, which was 1933. And what makes a hurricane season more powerful? ANS: Lower low pressure within the storms and less vertical wind shear during the storms.
As far as goes the claim that America has recently been plagued with hurricanes, let's review:
By the way, 2021 had 21 storms in all. 14 of them were the weaker low pressure systems, known as tropical storms. 7of them were hurricanes, 4 of which were Category 3 and higher. That was the year when Antarctica had its coldest winter known to science, and when numerous record high crop yields appeared throughout the world.
The Years 2011, 2010, & 2009 are missing from the list above. In as much, in 2011, there were 19 storms w/ 12 of them having been tropical storms, and 7 having been hurricanes, 4 of which were major. In 2010, there also were 19 storms. 12 were hurricanes, and 5 of those were major. In 2009, there were only 9 storms w/ 3 hurricanes, 2 of which were major.
While we're here: The true ocean surface circulation are eddies --- gyres.
When it comes to explaining to novices ocean circulation, a map like this one is presented, when the Gyre Map needes to be presented. This is because gyres are at the oceans' surfaces. BTW, below you see the phrase, "DEEP COLD CURRENT." All deep currents are cold; 39F, in fact. None the less, the surface of all non-frozen oceans are gyres ... rotating tops, so the speak. A little gyre is an eddy.
BELOW: This is the reality, compliments of NASA, in a much more localized photo. Take note of the very circular, gear-like eddies, especially toward the lower right hand side of this NASA photo. In fact, eddies border that specific Equatorial lane of ocean water known as ENSO, aka the Equatorial El Nino /La Nina current. Yes, the Pacific ENSO is bordered by eddies, aka small gyres --- round, watery gears.
You have been given 34 years of hyper-exaggeration, aka False-light disinformation. It hasn't ended. After all, Monsoon season is now being blamed on "the burning of fossil fuels." Yet, Monsoons have been a part of Climate all along, due to the fact that pressure systems rotate according to the Coriolis Effect, and also due to the fact that Planet Earth has a 23 1/2 degree tilt to it ... ... and additionally due to the fact that the northern sector of the INTERTROPICAL CONVERGENCE ZONE literally travels as far north as mid-India. That latitudinal floating action northeastward is India's monsoon season.
Concerning Monsoon Season in the American Southwest desert country, a high pressure air mass that's located partly on land and partly over the Gulf of Mexico serves the role of a gear turning clockwise, sending Gulf of Mexico water Northwest, into Arizona, Nevada, and Utah. That clockwise high pressure system constitutes their monsoon season. Of course, this is counter-intuitive & ironic, because "high pressure" usually means "dry air." Well, when it's partially over water, such a system becomes a clockwise-rotating water pump.
Incidentally, NASA has recently confirmed that there are two simultaneous Intertropical Convergence Zones positioned parallel to each other. One is in the Northern Hemisphere and the other one is in the Southern Hemisphere, with the Equator being the equilibrium point ... the return point ... of both zones. NASA calls them TWIN CONVERGENCE ZONES.
Here. Lookie see: https://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/images/2628/twin-convergence-zones
The climate hype has to end. So, the next time a hurricane comes, be respectful enough for the dead to be first buried and mourned, before giving your asinine conclusions about the cause of something which repeatedly brought intense destruction throughout the centuries, even when the atmospheric co2 level was below 300 ppm. There is zero correlation between devastating hurricanes and co2 levels. Hurricanes do NOT discriminate according to co2 levels. A hurricane is an equal opportunity destroyer, no matter what be the year or what be the co2 level.

Even though there were ZERO named storms in the Atlantic Basin throughout August of 2022, Joe Biden omitted mention of this rare phenomenon. Rather, during the same October day when Biden was caught mentioning how no one messes with a Biden, he publicly stated that the one and only 2022 hurricane to thus far hit the Continental 48 States was undeniable proof that we are engaged in catastrophic, crisis-stage climate change. Yet, hurricanes in the plural have been a consistent yearly occurrence, set forth in logs, almanacs, chronicles, journals and gazettes for HUNDREDS of years. These years were years of low atmospheric CO2.
There are records of seafarers and land stewards in America giving accounts of hurricanes that date back the July 1500 "huricán" that passed through the Bahamas, during a Vincente Yáñez Pinzón exploration. This included a report of the 1508 San Rogue "Huricán" reported by Ponce de Leon, himself. Incidentally, to the Portuguese who conquered Brazil, a hurricane was/is a furacão.
Now, the Spanish Armada even got hit by a massive sea storm, in Britain's North Sea, in 1588. In 1590, a 63-ship Spanish treasure fleet lost 14 ships in a Gulf of Mexico storm. In fact, there were 120 Spanish reports of huricáns, in the 16th Century alone, from the Azores to the present-day Texas coastline.
The 17th & 18th Centuries had their abundance of sea storm reports too. This shows that Michael Mann & David Attenborough lied when they individually claimed that the weather of the past 1,000 years was mild, up and until the Industrial Age. The weather was very often turbulent long before the Industrial Age. Turbulent sea storms were reported in the hundreds during the Age of Exploration & Sailing Ships.
In addition, the most famous typhoons in history were the ones that decimated a large Mongol invasion fleet in 1274 and then again, in 1281. Atmospheric co2 was very low in the 13th Century. Yet, some its hurricanes were ferocious. Therefore, the truth on the matter goes as follows:
There is zero correlation between the atmospheric co2 level and the frequency of hurricanes, as well as the intensity of hurricanes. If there suddenly stops the formation of Tropical Storms and Hurricanes, then that would be Climate Change. The continuation of yearly cyclones in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans is business as usual for Planet Earth. Thus, August 2022 was the exception, in there having been ZERO named storms in the Atlantic Basin throughout that entire month.
Even the Smithsonian Institute does NOT concur with David Attenborough & Michael Mann in the claim that the weather was predominately mild for 1,000 years, until the steam engine was invented circa 1712 CE. The Smithsonian admitted to the existence of cataclysmic storms as a matter of regular course, in the 1500s, 1600s, and 1700s. See for yourself:
Atlantic Coastline, Florida, during the coldest winter in 40 years. |
Then comes the new definition of Monsoon Season. It's now defined as a sign of climate change, despite the reality that Monsoon seasons throughout Planet Earth have been a regular Unchanged Climate event throughout the ages. In reality, Monsoons are easier to predict than any tropical storm or hurricane.
In fact, if you want to stop the yearly Monsoon seasons from occurring throughout Planet Earth, you must literally ======> stop the rotation of the Earth, in order to stop the Coriolis Effect upon rotating pressure systems which act like water wheels that send rain into the Monsoon regions. In as much, as long as there are yearly Monsoon seasons throughout the Earth, then it's business-as-usual for Planet Earth and the same old unchanged climate there.
The supreme asininity of "Climate Change" fanatics, in their claiming that Monsoon Season is an evil manifestation of evil evil "climate change," is this: Without Monsoons, you have widespread starvation and thirst. You have epic famines. The "Climate Change" Nazis are completely out-of-touch, in the highest degree.
For there to be life on Earth, CO2 is absolutely needed, in tandem with chlorophyll. Yet, those activists who are proudly going green want to do away with at least half the CO2 in the atmosphere. In many nations, the other necessity for life to sustain itself are . . . the Monsoons. The very arrogant going-green people want to do away with the needed sources of life. Yes, you can't have a tree to hug, if there's not enough CO2 in the air. Below 150 to 180 ppm of CO2 is when photosynthesis ceases. Life on Earth follows suit.
Remember, Monsoons are not random, and hurricanes do have a season of likely probability to them. In fact, the existence of the Atlantic Hurricane Season was the reason why the Battle of Yorktown was fought between September 28, 1781 to October the 19th of the same year. It was the Cape Verde Hurricane Season, and French naval officers knew all about that deadly time of year. After all, 1780 had a horrendous hurricane season. So, the French Navy was literally scared out of the Caribbean, into the Virginia coastline, where they brought for American land forces the ability to secure a victory against a very powerful imperial army.
Meanwhile, atmospheric co2 was 280 ppm (parts per million) in 1781. That was when the co2 level was 147 ppm LOWER than today's 427 ppm. Let's take a tour of hurricanes when co2 levels were much lower than today:
To start, the 2022 pre-harvest-season atmospheric co2 level (August 18) was 417.05 ppm. As of Oct 6, 2022, it was 415.2. Your first lesson is that the atmospheric co2 level only changes slightly throughout the year. Unless my math is wrong, the difference between Springtime co2 and Harvest time co2 is only 2%.
Second lesson: When you read about a hurricane's wind speed, it refers to the peak wind speed sustained for one minute in duration. As far as goes the traveling of an entire hurricane across an ocean, it travels much more slowly. For example, a 17 mph (miles per hour) hurricane is considered fast.
Third lesson: The lower the digits, in terms of measuring millibars, the more powerful is the low pressure system called a hurricane ... or typhoon, if it's a Pacific Ocean low pressure system. Concerning "lowest central pressure," anything under 900 millibars is a mighty storm. Even 930 & 960 is powerful, possessing great turbulence.
The following hurricanes are considered to be the ones with the lowest air pressure. That translates into powerful hurricanes. The wind speed thereafter generally, but not meticulously, correlates.
Now, I mentioned previously that the most powerful Atlantic hurricane, in terms of sustained wind, was Allen in 1980, at 190 mph (miles per hour). Well, the Pacific Ocean hosted two more powerful ones in 1961. In fact, in 1961, there were FIVE Category 5 typhoons. This was when the atmospheric co2 level was 316 ppm. That amounts to 113 ppm lower than today.
All in all, according to the co2 Theory, there should not have been 5 Cat 5 typhoons when co2 was so low. Yet, there were. Thus, the co2 Theory has been completely invalidated.
Quick Note: Average air pressure on Planet Earth is 1,013.2 millibars.
[1] Typhoon Nancy, September 1961. Sustained wind speed: 213 miles per hour. This occurred when the atmospheric co2 level was 316 ppm. That's 113 parts per million LOWER than today. Millibars: 882.
[2] Typhoon Violet, October 1961. Maximum sustained wind speed: 207 mph. Millibars: 886.
[3] There was Typhoon Ida, in 1958, when co2 was 313 ppm. Maximum Sustained Wind Speed was 200 mph. Millibars: 877. Yes, eight-seventy-seven.
[4] And Typhoon Joan, in 1959. Maximum sustained wind speed: 195 mph. Millibars: 885.
The other typhoons were equal-to or less-than Hurricane Allen in maximum sustained wind speed.
Now, concerning the Atlantic Ocean Basin and strong hurricanes that occurred there before 1960, there was:
1} The Labor Day Hurricane of 1935. Affected the Florida Keys & Georgia, and then went up the Carolinas. Wind speed: 185 mph. Millibars: 892. CO2 Level: 310 ppm ... 119 ppm less than in March 2025.
2} Hurricane Camille, 1969. Grabbed the attention of TV networks throughout America, and became the benchmark ... the icon ... the reference point ... of hurricanes, for decades. Hit Mississippi and Louisiana, for starters. Maximum sustained wind speed: 175 mph. Millibars: 900. CO2 Level: 323 ... 106 ppm less than in March of 2025.
3} Hurricane "Cuba," 1924. Maximum sustained wind speed: 165 mph. Millibars: 910. CO2 Level: 305 ... 114 ppm less than in March 2025.
4} The Great Miami Hurricane, 1926. Maximum sustained wind speed: 150 mph. Millibars: 930. CO2 Level: 305 ... 124 ppm less than in March 2025. Catastrophic hurricane.
5} San Felipe II, Okeechobee, 1928. Maximum sustained wind speed: 160 mph. Millibars: 929. CO2 Level: 307 ppm ... 122 ppm less than in March 2025.
6} Tampico, 1933. Maximum sustained wind speed: 160 mph. Millibars: 929.
The list goes on.
A sample of hurricanes that transpired in the 1700s.
CO2 levels were around 280 ppm ... 149 ppm less than in March 2025.
1) The Great Storm of 1703. England. 2,000 chimney stacks destroyed. One lighthouse destroyed. 13 navy ships & 40 merchant ships lost, along with with 1,500 British seamen. 4,000 oak trees ripped from one forest.
2) The Great Cuba Hurricane of 1791. 3,000 human deaths. 11,700 cattle lost.
3) The Central Atlantic Hurricane of 1782. It destroyed Admiral Thomas Graves' fleet. 3,000 deaths.
4) Solano's Hurricane, October 1780. Gulf of Mexico hurricane. 2,000 deaths.
5) The Great Hurricane of 1780. October. Lesser Antilles, Bermuda, Eastern Florida. 22,000 deaths. Yes, that's twenty-two THOUSAND.
6) St. Lucia Hurricane of 1780. June 13. 4,000 deaths.
7) Newfoundland Hurricane, September 1775. Also hit North Carolina & Virginia. 4,000+ deaths.
Do you get the message, yet? The CO2 Theory of hurricane proliferation & intensification is a complete falsehood. There is no law which says that you have to be the dupe & useful idiot of money grabbing politicians and activists.
Remember, Al Gore is a politician who did not know the general temperature of the Core of the Earth, yet he boldly proclaimed the wrongest number when trying to show his "science expertise" on live television And the quarter BILLION dollars that Gore amassed for himself, in selling the "Global Warming" religious fanaticism, is enough of a sign to show you his intent & motive. Money, money, and more money.
Hurricanes/typhoons are a regular part of Tropical Life. Their trips northward are a way of Planet Earth to prevent a massive temperature imbalance in the Tropics, when compared to the temperatures of the middle latitudes.
Yes, hurricanes are a balancing maneuver for global temperatures, and when hurricanes stop forming, then you can claim that we finally have Climate Change. In fact, when hurricanes stop forming, then Planet Earth will have a huge problem . . . with inordinate temperature imbalances throughout Earth. Until then, you're insulting the intelligence of every reasonable person with your Climate Nazi fanaticism.
You don't have to be repetitively annoying, chirping out "climate change" endlessly. You don't have to act like an incredibly arrogant idiot. If you want to rally against true threats to human health, address the Synthetic Chemical Issue. Also address the issue with Particulate Matter smaller than 2.5 microns. You're wasting your time playing CO2 Police.
The following was written in 2022. But, it is far more pertinent today, in light of the continuing hoax which claims the world to be in a Climate Crisis. There are over 60 climate-related discourses here, to prove the sky-is-falling claim to be an insult to a reasonable person's intelligence. And they are supported with numerous pieces of evidence which, predictably enough, is known as "Evidentiary Support."
In as much, if you don't at least look through the numerous pieces of evidence here, then you have zero right to speak on the subject. Mentioning one biomarker ... one statistic taken out of context ... is the sign of someone easily persuaded and therefore easily duped. Of course, the rise in CO2 is the sole marker cited in doomsday diatribes. Yet, the amount still is a mere trace amount in the atmosphere which is 78% Nitrogen, 21% Oxygen, 9% Argon, and a mere 0.044% of CO2 which has three vibrational modes, one of which renders CO2 incapable of capturing Infrared Light.
Ironically enough, like a typical dictator, Al Gore refused to entertain conversations and debates about his doomsday climate claims. This is because he knows that he will lose the debate ... the cross-examination. In the words of Jackie Gleason (super famous TV host of the 1960s) "And away we go."

Let us begin with the various fire & incident frequency charts provided to the public by the London Fire Brigade. Concerning Greater London's size, it encompasses an area of 610 square miles.
Keep in mind that, during July of 2022, the media kept stating that the rise in atmospheric co2 was finally causing an out-of-control rise in Greater London fires. Well, the opposite is true.
From the Year 2004 to the Year 2022, the annual number of London Area fires were cut in half, in comparison to the fire numbers ranging from 1969 to 2004. In fact, each individual year ... from 2004 to 2022 ... was 1/3 of what it was in 1976.
Moreover, the year prior (2021) was the year of the least number of fires in the record-keeping history of Greater London. Meanwhile, the Year 2022 had the fourth least number of fires in the Greater London area ... since the beginning of record-keeping there. In fact, while the atmospheric co2 level was rising throughout the years 2004 to 2022, the number of Greater London fires continuously decreased. Therefore, an elevation of co2 will NOT cause your city or town to dry-out & burn-up. See for yourself.
In July of 2022, the media claimed that atmospheric co2 finally reached a tipping point. In July of 2022, the same media began the countdown to the End of the World ... proverbially speaking. On the 19th of that month, the London Area thermometers went above 100F. In London, the official reading was 102F. In a town located 11 miles west of London, the reading was 104F, for two hours only.
The claim was that co2 was saturating the atmosphere so badly that it was now causing London to dry-out and burn out-of-control. The newscasters claimed that, on July 19th, the London Fire Brigade had its "most incidents" since the bombing of London, in WWII.
The same media said that the London Area had the most fires in any one day, on July 19, 2022. The truth is that July 19, 2022 wasn't anywhere close to that. In comparison to any WWII air raid, the July 19th incidents was less than chump change. Compared to the daily average of fires in 1976, the number of fires on July 19th was 52 fires LESS.
Compared to the daily average of Greater London fires in 1970, 1975, 1979, 1983, 1984, 1989, 1990, 1994, 1995, 2000, 2001, 2003 and a few other years, the number of July 19th fires were 24 to 38 LESS. At the very least, there were approximately 2,500 Greater London days that had more fires than did July 19th day. Reporting July 19th as the worst day since a world war was like lighting a candle with one matchstick and claiming it to be a 5-alarm fire.
In the entire Year of 2022, there were 19,297 fires in the 607 sq mile area known as Greater London. In 1976, there were over 60,000 fires in the exact same area. In 1989, 1990, 1995, and 2003 there were over 55,000 fires EACH YEAR, in the exact same Greater London region. More important is the fact that, in every year from 1969 to 2005, there were at least 40,000 fires. That amounts to 37 consecutive years when the yearly fire count was at least TWO TIMES MORE than it was in 2022. This also amounts to an average of 164 fires per day during 1976 versus an average of 53 fires per day in 2022.
Now, July 19 was an average day in terms of "incidents." The daily average for 2022 was 343 incidents per day. In 2022, 47% of all Greater London incidents were false alarms; 59,415 of them.
On July 19, 2022, there were 362 incidents. On that same day, there were 142 false alarms. There were 112 fires on that day, and that number has an ironic twist to it. This is because the daily averge of fires from 1970 to 2004 were at least 109. Thus, July 19, 2022 was an average day, when looking at the big picture.
A complete London Fire Brigade Incident Record for July 19 can be found directly below, via 7 photo-copies. You can do the statistics yourself.

Let's review this correctly, without any sleight of hand con artistry:
Between 1970 and 2004, the 610 square mile region known as Greater London had between 109 to 164 fires PER DAY. This translates into 60,000+ fires per year and 40,000 fires per year. Then, in the Year 2009, yearly London fires decreased below 30,000. Then, in 2014, yearly fires decreased to 20,000 per year. So, between 2015 and 2022, Greater London had an average of between 41 to 55 DAILY fires. Thus, it was an unconscionable lie to have stated that Greater London's climate had gotten out of control. The opposite was true.
The number of London fires were literally cut in half, while co2 increased significantly in the atmosphere. Thus, a courtroom lawyer could actually tell a jury that the rise in co2 caused a decrease in London fires. Yet, the truth is that co2 remains at such a small atmospheric level that it can't affect the air, either for good or for bad. The only greenhouse gas which holds influence is water vapor. In fact, Cirrus clouds retain infrared light more effectively than does co2.
The atmosphere is humongous. Acres of plants, trees, weeds, and blades of grass are all tiny, in comparison. CO2 drives the biosphere; not the atmosphere. The other greenhouse gases ... other than water vapor ... are too small in quantity to drive any air mass greater than a laboratory experiment chamber.
Ther article below is "truncated." It's only part of the whole. The entire article can be found by clicking here:
Back to 2022
The pronounced decrease in Greater London fires occurred while the population of the area increased by 1,300,000 people. Now, an increase in population brings with it an increased probability of fires. However, despite the simultaneous increase in the London Area population and in the atmospheric CO2 level, Greater London achieved an eighteen-year-long streak of consistently decreased fire event numbers. Thus, CO2 is not as powerful as the media claims it to be, in killing-off society. The asininity of demonizing CO2 is that, without CO2, life on Earth ceases. After all, CO2 is the activator of photosynthesis.
At this point, keep in mind that the media in July of 2022 showed houses or small buildings on fire, as if CO2 caused spontaneous combustion throughout London. "Chart #17" below is from the London Fire Brigade, and it mentions that "House fires in Greater London have reduced drastically since 1981." This decrease occurred while co2 levels were rising and while the population of Greater London was rising by an additional 1.3 million people.
This proves that in no way did the constant rise of atmospheric co2 cause an increase in Greater London fires. Thus, the 2022 London news reports were all scams. It was one big false alarm. In as much, let's view additional evidentiary support provided by the London Fire Brigade:
Above:
The stats of 2021. That's last year. Last year was the year of the
LEAST NUMBER OF FIRES in the London Area, in all of London's recorded
history. In as much, 14,929 is much less than 40,000.
Most
important is that the co2 level of 2021 was the exact same co2 level of
2022, minus an insignificant one and a half parts per million. The
exact same co2 level gave the 610 square mile London Vicinity its LOWEST
AMOUNT of fires-per-year, ever since record keeping began. Thus, we
have 100,000% proof that the co2 level of 2022 did NOT cause London to
catch on fire, as the media very falsely claimed, to its future legal
detriment.
Above
are the stats for the Year 2020. This is the year with the second
LOWEST number of fires. 17,409 is also much less than 40,000.
Directly
below are the stats for the Year 2022, as of October of that year. The
Year 2022 will be one of the lowest incident & fire years on
record. In fact, it thus far is the year with the least number of
incidents, depending on the November & December stats. But as far
as goes its final tally for fires, that is projected to be about 18,000
to 19,000, if this chart (posted in November) includes the October fire
statistics. If the chart below only includes the stats up to September,
then the projected sum total is 20,000 to 21,000 for the year. This
also is much less than the typical 40,000+ yearly fires that occurred
between 1968 and 2004.

This was "as of September 2022." |

This was 2022 in its entirely; the fourth lowest number of fires in its record-keeping history. Take note that there were 59,415 false alarms in the same year. |
Now, when you see a fire occurring near green grass and green leafage, the fire is not fueled by dried-out grass and leafage. Moreover, being that the media claimed England to have been the victim of drought and heatwaves in the Summer of 2022, one would logically conclude that the 2022 harvests of the UK would be dismal crop failures. Well, they turned out to be very healthy crop yields, thereby showing the July 2022 media members to be a cabal of sophomoric liars. Observe:
![]() |
No downhill sliding board here. Steady crop yield pattern, with increases, since the Year 2000. |
In
2022, the UK enjoyed an 8 1/2% increase in cereal grains. It was simply that there
was an approximate 1% less and a 1 1/2 % less moisture content in the
harvested grains than average. So, where is the great co2 disaster in Britain, during 2022. The agricultural industry didn't see one, at all.
None the less, wheat was up 11% and barley was up
6%. The UK's main oilseed harvest was up by 39%, but the crop yield
increase was only 17%, being that the UK used more farmland for planting its main oilseed crop.
In fact, the UK used 13% less farmland for oats, and the oats yield for
2022 was surmised (estimated) to be 10% less than last year. Technically, this translates into a humble 3% increase for UK oat farmers, per acre.
We proceed to 1901, 121 years before the July 2022 day placed under amplified attention by the media. July 19, 2022 was presented as the unprecedented beginning of the End of the World. The media claimed that it was a day unprecedented in the history of England. They lied. The truth is the climate is CYCLICAL --- unless something. In as much, the Year 2022 was little more than the Year of the Great Deja Vu ... of 1922. Enough newspaper photocopies on that year are already posted at thr Blue Mrble Album. We'll go back further, to 1901, so that you can see that "this" has all been seen and experienced before, time after time.
In 2014, NASA declared that
the worst drought year in the past 1,000 years was 1934. The co2 level at he time was 309 ppm. That's 108 ppm LOWER than today. Yet, according to
the Al Gore theory, 2020, 2021, and 2022 should have been the worst
drought years. Well, contrary to what the media claimed, Arizona & Nevada have been getting yearly monsoon rains. This neglect of reporting the truth is the result of media's managers
wanting to deceive you into thinking that we are trapped in a deadly circle of Dante's Inferno. The truth is that we are doing nothing more than repeating history in a
cyclical fashion.
In caveman days, the co2 level was 260 ppm. And during recent heated eras, such as the Roman Warm Period & the Medieval Warm Period, co2 was only 280 ppm. Today, atmospheric co2 is 421 ppm, and today's heat is quit only a repeat performance of the past. The two 1901 articles above are a small sample of the hundreds of pieces of documentary evidence which show that a rise in temperature is not dependent upon a rise in co2. Rather, according to ice core analysis, a rise in temperature historically came first, resulting in added evaporation of ocean water and the simultaneous emission of additional co2 into the atmosphere.
To call July 2022 "unprecedented" makes knowledgeable people roll their eyes and say, "Give me a break, and cut it out with the theatrics." After all, there was such a thing as the Great Fire of London in 1666, along with ~the Great Fire of Tooley Street, 1861, ~the Burning of the Parliament, aka the Palace of Westminster (which was a complex of buildings), 1834, ~the Whitehall Palace Fire, 1698, ~the London Bridge Area Fire, 1633, the first London Bridge Fire, 1135, ~the Southwark Fire of 1212, ~the Great Fire of 1087, ~the Great Fire of Aldgate which burned all the way to Ludgate and which included St. Paul's Cathedral, 961, ~the Fire of 120 AD, when the Romans ruled.
Needless to say, it was everybody's fault, for riding in motor vehicles and keeping warm in the Wintertime, as well as using evil evil air conditioners in the Summertime.
Below is the London Temperature Calendar, for July 2022. Here's the London that was presented by the media as an overly heated inferno. Show me where this super oppressive, long-term, human-body-killing heat is, in the London Summer of 2022. Yes, there are a couple of weeks of temperature anomalies, in London. But, there was nothing that resulted in the death phrases "may have caused" and "likely to have caused." This was followed by a ridiculous number Paris experienced in 1976 & 2003.
And of course, there was so much misinformative hype about Paris in July of 2022 that it insults the intelligence. Those news articles use the phrases, "likely to have caused" and "may have caused" a certain number of deaths that equaled the deaths suffered by Britain, during the first day of the Battle of the Somme. None the less, deadly heatwaves, deadly droughts, deadly storms, deadly floods, deadly pestilence, deadly algae blooms, hurricanes, blizzards, cold snaps, Yellow Sky days, ice stacking, glacier growths, glacier meltdowns, etc, etc, etc. It all happened throughout the past 700 years.
The sophomorically trained and sophomorically educated journalists look for that one tipping point moment. Climate is an habitual trend ... NOT a one-day, two-day or even two-week event. Here, see the temperatures of July 2022 yourself.
