ABC News is Wrong, the Western U.S. Is Not Suffering from a Climate Change Induced “Megadrought”

ABC News is promoting the false claim that human climate change is responsible for a “Mega-drought” affecting much of the Western United States. Although drought conditions have persisted for a couple of years now across portions of the Western United States, droughts in the dry West are common and research shows much larger, longer-term droughts have occurred there historically. Because current conditions are not outside the historic records of drought, there is no evidence human greenhouse gas emissions are contributing the current drought.

In a story, titled “‘Mega-drought’ in West directly linked to climate change, experts say,” ABC New claims,

“The ‘mega-drought’ that’s plaguing much of the western U.S. is a direct consequence of warming global temperatures, according to experts. The term is used to describe a severe and intense drought that spans a couple of decades, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration meteorologist Brad Pugh told ABC News.”

This is stupid.  The Desert Southwest is a desert because....it's "arid."  It always gets hot and it hardly ever rains, and that's been the norm for thousands and thousands of years.

It's like declaring a new ice age because Prudhoe Bay is frozen for most of the year.
