Reserve Bank of Australia and the chart is based on fake data. from the report

Globally, the frequency of extreme weather and climate events has increased over recent decades and it is likely
that this trend will continue (Graph 7).[3] Over the past 20 years, the number of major floods has doubled and the
frequency of extreme heatwaves and droughts has also increased significantly.

ref 3 is See IPCC (2021), ‘Summary for Policymakers’ in Climate Change 2021: The Physical Science Basis. Contribution of Working Group I to
the Sixth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, United
Kingdom and New York, NY, pp. 3−32. Available at <IPCC_AR6_WGI_SPM.pdf>.

Which does not include the data to back that chart up. He lied. Again.

I do know where it comes from and the people who created acknowledge that it is not robust historically, as anyone can see, we do not get 10x more bad stuff than in the 1940-1959 decades, it just gets observed and reported.

Cheers

It would be interesting to know the original source for that data

It’s just a database of disaster events. The records get patchier the further back you go, hence the apparent exponential increase in natural disasters over 100 years.

It’s concerning that Philip Lowe considers it a reliable measure of extreme weather events, and of the economic cost of climate change.

What is the Emergency Events Database and who are RBA? ponder

Emergency Events Database:


RBA (The Reserve Bank of Australia)




The graph appears to be the RBA’s, based on data from the emergency events database. If you download excel records from EMDAT the number of events in each year appears to correspond to the approximate size of the bars in the graph. So I presume that’s what they did.

It and what is going to follow is likely related to the effects of climate change... It may get more severe over time... we'll just have to wait and find out...

Seems like a golden opportunity...

There is a good chance that energy efficient lighting is a cause of biodiversity loss.

Call climate change what it really is. Geoengineering, cause and effect. Make the problem to fix the problem.

A really good article on Climate Change:
Wrong link and I cannot locate it... will try... thanks Hokie...

Notice the extreme weather chart above, around 1960 is when President Johnson talked about weather control.
All fits nicely, its a fine science now. Its nice and extreme now, to help you "Believe".

Nothing screams ignorance of the scientific method like unquestioning deference to supposed “experts”.

The other side will soon have a chance to correct that.

Seems to me I read that the House has been taken by the Republicans. And by the way, the Democrat chairman of that committee has been defeated for reelection.

We are having a normal winter here on the USA West Coast currently. That video is no better quality than dik's links.
