    Poor ABC News.

    They've just lost a valuable tool in their arsenal of climate change
    alarmism and hysteria. the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) will no longer publish the cost of natural disasters fueled by
    'climate change' and it's gotta hurt the propagandists in the media:

    More from ABC News:

    The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration will no longer track
    the cost of climate change-fueled weather disasters, including floods,
    heat waves, wildfires and more. It is the latest example of changes to the agency and the Trump administration limiting federal government resources
    on climate change.

    NOAA falls under the U.S. Department of Commerce and is tasked with daily weather forecasts, severe storm warnings and climate monitoring. It is
    also parent to the National Weather Service.

    The agency said its National Centers for Environmental Information would
    no longer update its Billion-dollar Weather and Climate Disasters database beyond 2024, and that its information — going as far back as 1980 — would
    be archived.

    For decades, it has tracked hundreds of major events across the country, including destructive hurricanes, hail storms, droughts and freezes that
    have totaled trillions of dollars in damage.

    So ... weather. That thing that's been happening since the dawn of time.

    Got it.

    Good riddance to bad rubbish.

    With such an abysmal track record, is it any wonder why we don't trust
    them?

    Nailed it.

    Correct.

    Not nearly enough.

    Stretching is what they do.

    And by 'stretching' we mean 'lying.'

    Yes. Yes, it is.

    Bingo.

    Loosen the tinfoil hat.

    It will not cost lives.

    But nice try.

    Editor's Note: The mainstream media continues to deflect, gaslight, spin,
    and lie.
