It's hard to believe there are still people who deny global warming and climate change. But there are. Even Donald Trump is a climate change denier. While many people may refuse to believe it, it is effecting them. Great changes in the weather, with more intense storms is now happening. The best example is the flooding going on right now in Texas
From The Guardian:
A new study finds a human fingerprint in the wettest month on record in Texas and Oklahoma.
In some instances, areas are experiencing more severe droughts and more flooding as the weather systems swing from dry to wet quickly. Added to this is the fact that ocean temperatures have an enormous influence on weather.
As an example, an El Niño, which is the appearance of a warm water pool in the Pacific Ocean , can influence weather across the globe. Human-caused warming of the oceans adds to the El Niño cycles, which in turn affect the atmosphere. The real scientific question is, do human greenhouse gases influence a specific flood or drought event? A growing body of science is finding that the answer to this question is yes.
A paper just published in Geophysical Research Letters looked at the May 2015 floods in Texas and Oklahoma in the USA Utah State
