The Washington Post is making preposterous claims in a newly published article claiming more than 40 percent of Americans were “hit” by climate disasters in 2021. Among the preposterous claims, the Post claims a hurricane hit upstate Vermont and Buffalo, New York. No such hurricane struck either of the inland regions.
In its January 5 article, titled “More than 40 percent of Americans live in counties hit by climate disasters in 2021,” the Post presents a map of the United States including border lines shown for all counties in the country. Then, the Post adds a color to each county allegedly “hit” by a climate disaster in 2021.
The Post’s analysis is egregiously biased and flawed. For example, the Post justifies claiming every county in California was hit by a “climate disaster” because of wildfires. However, NASA satellites have measured a dramatic decline in the amount of land burned globally due to wildfires. National data show an even larger long-term decline in U.S. wildfires. Also, California data show a long-term decline in California wildfires. Of course, some wildfires will always occur, but blaming global warming or “climate change” for the smaller number of California wildfires that still occur as the Earth modestly warms is nonsensical.
