the claim was taken from a then unpublished report by Robert Muir-Wood, head of research at London-based consultancy Risk Management Solutions, when Dr Muir-Wood released the report he added the caveat: 'We find insufficient evidence to claim a statistical relationship between global temperature increase and catastrophe losses [damage caused by natural disasters].'
Dr Muir-Wood attacked the way his evidence was used, He said: 'The idea that catastrophes are rising in cost partly because of climate change is completely misleading, We could not tell if it was just an association or cause and effect, 'Also, our study included 2004 and 2005 which was when there were some major hurricanes, if you took those years away then the significance of climate change vanished.'
unbelievable, an unpublished report written by some one is taken on board and not checked by his peers, worse by an organisation as august as the UN and put out as the truth, for years and we believed them! and then we went round putting up taxes to combat man made global warming, as I have repeated for as far back as I can remember, man made global warming is a green tree hugger money making myth, but alas, it is to big and rich to stop.
