Honest scientists are using satellite data and rural temperature gauges as well as ice core samples that tell a completely different story about the climate and it goes completely against the alarmists' narrative.

I don't have keyboard access to go into detail on that but WOW. You're outdoing yourself with your quality sources this time!
You're right. Hurricanes, by number and intensity haven't changed significantly over the last 120 years, or even since satellites started tracking them. I tried to find evidence confirming my bias and failed. Coral reefs on the other hand...
It's promising, but doesn't necessarily mean much. Whenever you have an ecological niche cleared out, something will colonise it. In this case the conditions of space being opened up by the death of lots of the reef means that a smaller subset of fast growing corals have been growing and taking over. That can be a good thing, as they act as the frontier species, before others more slowly and later follow. It can also be bad, as they quickly take up space stopping a larger variety of ones from having space. These fast growing species also tend to be more susceptible to environmental pressures, so historically they have been among the first to see mass die backs as well. It's like flying over a forest where the existing trees have been destroyed via fire, and pointing to all the green from grass and new seedlings as a sign that things are better than ever because the forest floor is greener than it was before the fire.
I'm glad if the south Pacific is doing well. The Caribbean crashed. I'm speaking from personal observation over 10 years regularly diving Pennekamp state park off Largo.
I was born in a crossfire hurricane. To this day, no-one has been able to explain what a crossfire hurricane actually IS (I think there's a rum and an FBI operation named after it?), but me and Mick Jagger both - so it must exist, right?!
On this date, in 1856, a paper describing "the greenhouse effect" was read before a meeting of the American Academy for the Advancement of Science.
