The Global Warming Policy Foundation has today published its periodic review of global hurricane activity. [emphasis, links added]
The author, climate researcher Paul Homewood, says that official data is absolutely clear: hurricanes are neither increasing in number nor intensity.
Homewood says:
“The observational data published by meteorological agencies in 2023 has confirmed once again that there are no upward trends in global hurricane activity since reliable records began in the 1970s.”
And Homewood calls on journalists to start reporting these undisputed facts to the public:
“While scientists are quite clear that we are not seeing any increase in hurricanes, the public has been scared into thinking that tropical storms are worsening.
“Unless the mainstream media starts reporting empirical facts rather than misleading spin, it will continue to hemorrhage credibility and public trust.”

From the article, “And Homewood calls on journalists to start reporting these undisputed facts to the public:” The media totally supports the climate change movement and knows that this movement would quickly die in an environment where the facts were generally known. The media can not hemorrhage credibility because they have none left to lose.
Well said David. Unfortunately too many people only get “news” from these journalists and so actually believe what is regurgitated by them.
