Bill McKibben: Please Shut Up

Sometimes I wish Bill McKibben would just shut the hell up.

And if he can't stop blaming ever sneeze and puddle on global warming, perhaps he could at least explain this (from Ryan Maue's site):



Now, ACE (Accumulated Cyclone Energy) isn't a perfect measure -- it doesn't take in account a storm's area, for example -- but it's hard to see how that deficiency could keep ACE levels at such lows in recent years.

Seems not on point. To counter McKibben's contention that hurricanes are travelling farther north due to climate change, you'd need a graph of the frequency or severity of hurricanes hitting New England. This more generalized graph can't show whether he's right or wrong.
