The explanation is we are in an interglacial period the planet SHOULD be warming so quoting symptoms of warming is merely confirmation of the null hypothesis ie natural forces are doing their thing and your examples confirming the cause as man made co2 bomb at first principle level.Tell you what mate, go to an East African farmer whos seen the dry season extend 30% in the last 20 years and tell him that.
Of course, you'll also have an explanation for the increased frequency and severity of tropical storms and the 80% reduction in arctic pack ice over 50 years.
Slavishly following headlines without checking the ACTUAL science is the baseline fallacy of the whole canard. The hiatus in temps (sic IPCC) as co2 continued to rise empirically demonstrates the hypothesis is bust it really is that simple.
Add in the ONLY long term science re the co2/temp relationship (800k yrs of ice core samples) irrefutably showing co2 does NOT cause global warming and it's undeniable you and the similar minded are being taken for a ride.
Sorry, dems da facts
