During the low CO2 summer of 1954, half of the US was in moderate to extreme drought and New England was hit by two major hurricanes in ten days. If this happened now, US climate experts would demand immediate world communism to save the planet.
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!

I vividly remember that summer. I was a child in Wisconsin and was hit directly by a lightning bolt. Nearly died.
I remember that summer as well. When the hurricane passed by, I went outside and jumped into the wind. Then I jumped with the wind and went much further. My parents didn’t approve.
Not to mention Hurricane Hazel in October 1954, a CAT 4 that brought death and destruction from the Carolinas to Ontrario.
So Communism = good, Climate Change = Bad.
Got it.
Yeah, 1954, before we wrecked the climate. What about the climate footprint of WWII? Thousands of ships and hundreds of thousands of planes? A million or so trucks, mostly burning leaded gas?
In 1954 nature generated more than 100X as much CO2 as humans. Your hatred of humanity is ugly.
Oh well, life goes on!
I was in the first grade in tidewater Virginia that year. The destruction locally included big old trees literally ripped apart by the winds and damage to local schools and homes. I mean roofs torn off as in tornadoes, a liberty ship shoved onto the dock that it was tied beside, and flooding throughout the swamp country we were near.
Vivid still…
I was already out-gassing by then.
