    The increase has been spurred, scientists say, by the periodic El Niño climate event, which has now waned

    One can maybe alter emissions, but not much that one can do about El Niño.

      El Niño is a certainty. Obviously the emissions are the controllable. Blaming this on El Niño is like shoving someone in front of a moving train and saying nothing can be done about the 5:05 express.

      Well I mean, America’s comedy president thought it might be a feasible option to drop nuclear weapons onto hurricanes (allegedly) so I’m sure someone would give stopping El Niño the ol’ college try.
