Even the Pope sides with Futurecurrents

Paris (AFP) - Man-made climate change significantly enhanced the risk of the severe winter storms that ravaged southern England two years ago, according to a study released Monday.


Global warming amplified the likelihood of the "once-in-a-century" heavy flooding -- responsible for some 600 million euros ($650 million) in insured losses during the winter of 2013/2014 -- by more than 40 percent, researchers reported.

"We found that extreme rainfall, as seen in January 2014, is more likely to occur in a changing climate," said Nathalie Shaller, lead author and a scientist at Oxford University.

Let's talk about all of those winter storms and flooding that occurred in France and England from 400AD to 600AD. You remember those centuries when most of coastal France and coastal southern England were 3 to 6 feet underwater. All of this must have been due to the man-made climate change caused by these pre-medieval populations.
