What they tend to point out is that a single event cannot ever be
said to have been directly caused by climate change (as if would
never have happened at all without it), which of course you can
never prove.
Well if you accept the concept of climate change then you must accept
that /every/ weather event is caused by it, on the grounds that the
weather would have been completely different had there been none.
You are kidding, right?
So every death from lung cancer is caused by cigarette-smoking?
Every heart attack is caused by cigarette-smoking?
Every case of thrombosis is caused by cigarette-smoking?
Every road accident is caused by drink-driving?
etc. . .
