Global Warming - and hurricane strength
I'm considering this a media bias post because of the apparent disparity in reporting..
Michael Asher writes at DailyTech.com:
"Last week, a similar study was published in Science. However, this paper, written by a team of four researchers, claims Emmanuel's work was fundamentally flawed, and that the data doesn't support any increase in hurricane intensity. The paper showed that estimation of storm strength has increased in recent years, mostly due to better satellite imagery, and that storms in decades past were actually stronger than we first thought. Unlike the earlier study, this report was greeted with resounding silence. No headlines, no guest show appearances, and no special award from Time."
