“Heat waves, droughts, wildfires, and floods – all are now more frequent and intense.”

Obama’s 13 words.

I’m sure these 13 words are music to the Daily Camera’s (at least I THINK he works there) Clay, global warming is “settled science”, Evans. But there are facts that shouldn’t be ignored…

The claim is so factually challenged that it is a wonder it got by the White House staff. Looking at the weather stations that have 80 years of data shows heat records were set in the 1930s, the Palmer drought index shows the 1930s and the 1950s were hotter and dryer with the 1930’s dust bowl lasting a decade. … Increased floods are not supported by the data, and, according to the National Interagency Fire Center, wildfires are declining.

As a scientist, you cannot throw away data that doesn’t agree with your hypothesis (or funding).
