Subject Index Summary
Floods (North America): Will floods become more severe and more frequent in response to greenhouse gas-induced global warming, as climate alarmists say they will? We get a pretty good clue from another question that can be answered with real-world data: Has flooding in North America intensified in response to the post-Little Ice Age warming that climate alarmists claim is primarily due to that very cause?
