It turns out that global surface temperature has not increased
significantly since 2000, discounting the larger-than-usual El Niño of
2015-16.

And it isn’t just Hansen who got it wrong, models devised by the IPCC
have, on average, predicted about twice as much warming as has been
observed since global satellite temperature monitoring began 40 years ago.

What about Hansen’s other claims? He claimed that the late ’80s and ’90s
would see “greater than average warming in the southeast U.S. and the
Midwest.” No such spike has been measured in these regions.

In 2007, Hansen stated that most of Greenland’s ice would soon melt,
raising sea levels 23 feet over the next 100 years. Subsequent research
published in Nature magazine demonstrated this to be impossible.

Several more of Mr. Hansen’s predictions fizzled. Have hurricanes gotten
stronger, as Mr. Hansen predicted? No.

Satellite data shows no evidence of this in relation to global surface
temperature.

Have storms caused increasing damage in the U.S.?

No. Data from NOAA show no such increase.

How about stronger tornadoes?

No. In fact, the opposite may be true, as NOAA data offers some evidence
of a decline.
