Why Climate Change Is Not A Crisis

President Joe Biden contends that the recent hurricanes that hit the United States prove we’re in a “climate crisis.”

It’s a “code red” for the world, the president warns. White House national climate adviser Gina McCarthy added that climate is now a “health emergency.”

It is, no doubt, quite convenient for politicians to treat every hurricane, tornado, and flood as an apocalyptic sign from Gaea — and then blame political apostates for the existence of nature.

But it’s an irrational way to think about the world. Because our situation is, in most ways — including our ability to adapt to the vagaries of climate — quantifiably better than before on nearly every front.

This reality is probably difficult for a generation subjected to decades of fearmongering to accept, but climate anomalies are nothing new.

Partly because we have the technological ability to adapt. If we throw that away, sacrificed on the altar of greenness, we won't have that ability, and we will not be able to adapt. That would be a crisis, but manufactured out of stupidity, not tailpipe emissions.
