How do you attribute causality in each of these cases? Just because you know there is a "force" doesn't mean you know the extent to which that force influenced these outcomes, as there have always been extreme weather events.

In prior years I heard a big emphasis on climate vs weather, to inform the public that just because they had a cold winter, doesn't mean that the earth itself is cooling. It's a longer term trend, and it's hard to attribute individual events to it. I think that's the correct and nuanced view.

The view I have seen most recently in the media is "every extreme weather event that supports is evidence of long term climate change, every one that does not is short term weather". Are you promoting that view?
