Our current high temperatures are due to the lack of any recent VEI4 or larger volcanic eruptions that inject cooling sulfurous gasses into the stratosphere, where they convert into a mist of the SO2 aerosol, Sulfuric Acid, H2SO4, which NASA states is reflective and dims the incoming solar radiation., cooling the lower atmosphere and the Earth's surface. And the inverse is true, if there are none, temperatures will inevitably rise, since it increases the intensity of the solar radiation striking the Earth's surface, drying it out and increasing wildfires, droughts , floods, and extreme weather The next such eruption will cool the Earth for about 2 years, until they settle out, then warming will resume. We DO have the technology to do some geo-engineering to lower temperatures, if politicians and "scientists" allow it.

I haven't heard anyone say that wildfires are the result of "climate change" ALONE. As with hurricane activity - it's ADDED on intensity that's the problem.

Bill Hurley: No. it's not added on intensity that's the problem. The HHER TEMPERATURES are the problem since they dry out vegetation, cause droughts, and cause more burning.
