- Study: Official US Climate Data Reveals No Cause For Alarm – ‘US climate has become less extreme compared to previous ages’
In short, the US climate is in most ways less extreme than it used to be. Temperatures are less extreme at both ends of the scale, storms less severe and droughts far less damaging. While it is now slightly warmer, this appears to have been largely beneficial.
Wildfires now burn only a fraction of the acreage they did prior to WW2
Sea-level rise is currently no higher than around the mid-20th century

- New Study finds no evidence of a ‘signal of human-caused climate change’ from weather extremes – Published in journal Environmental Hazards
New peer-reviewed study in journal Environmental Hazards by Dr. Roger Pielke, Jr. - Economic “Normalization” of Disaster Losses 1998-2020: A Literature Review and Assessment
"A few years in the making, a robust peer review process": "A very strong, bottom-line conclusion across the normalization literature is that evidence signal of human-caused climate change in the form of increased global economic losses from more frequent or more intense weather extremes has not yet been detected."
Dr. Roger Pielke Jr.: " Of these 54 studies:
53 focus on weather or climate
39 find no trends after normalization
8 find decreasing trends
5 find increasing
1 finds mixed trends - Linking ‘Climate Change’ To Floods Not Supported By Science
