Michael Mann confuses weather with climate

Michael Mann on Russell Review: 'We Can Now Put This Bogus, Manufactured Scandal Behind Us' - ScienceInsider
It is my hope that we can now put this bogus, manufactured scandal behind us, and move on to a more constructive conversation about climate change.

It seems particularly ironic that climate change deniers continue to harp over their now discredited claims regarding decade-old emails while we're experiencing almost daily reminders of the reality of global warming and climate change. We're currently witnessing the warmest temperatures ever globally, and are in the midst of a record-setting heat wave in the U.S. associated with the warmest early summer temperatures ever. Meanwhile, the warmest-ever tropical Atlantic ocean temperatures ever are likely to lead to a hyperactive Atlantic hurricane season this summer, and Arctic sea ice is on course to plummet to its lowest levels ever this summer/fall. Human-caused climate change is a reality, and its about time we get on to a meaningful discussion about what to do about it.
