Bad science post of the day

I hate air pollution.

When I travel in Manila, I have to use an asthma inhaler to stop an attack. Here in the provinces, I only have to use an inhaler in spring, when they burn off the weeds in the fields.

However, science reporting on "green" issues often is so inaccurate that a lot of us who believe in global warming and fighting pollution have to wonder why they need bad logic and poorly written experiments to prove their point.

One wonders how intelligent sites like Nat Geo (and worse, peer reviewed scientific journals) put up headlines such as this one:

Why Tornadoes take the weekends off in summer.

here is a map of prevailing surface winds that would carry pollution or fallout from these major industrial centers:

and here is a map of Tornado alley.

now, someone tell these bozos that pollution from New York City and other east coast cities aren't the reason we had to hide in a tornado cellar when we lived in Oklahoma...full rant on BNN...
