Axios Foments Fear That Climate Change Is Changing The Polar Vortex
Axios, an online news and opinion service, published an article, titled “Polar vortex, extreme weather events set to slam U.S.,” by Andrew Freedman, in which the writer claims that climate change is altering the polar vortex, making it more extreme and erratic.
While there is some factual reporting in the piece about pending weather events, Freedman’s claim that climate change is altering the polar vortex is fact-free. [emphasis, links added]
“Some of the upcoming extremes have clear ties to climate change,” writes Freedman. “There are numerous studies that suggest polar vortex excursions may be becoming more likely in a warming world, but this is still an area of active research.”
