Connect the dots.
Florida has gone for over seven years without a hurricane strike, the longest such period on record. During the 19th century, Florida averaged about one hurricane per year.
Nobel Prize winner Al Gore says that all weather is now caused by man-made CO2, so we can safely conclude that man-made CO2 is keeping Florida safe from hurricanes. Another hundred thousand miles on your SUV, and perhaps you can stop hurricanes in New Jersey as well.
Maybe Al needs to chop up some more ice in Antarctica too.
It hasn’t really dawned on him that his own excessive consumption is keeping Florida safe (despite the fact that the state caused his demise in 2000).
Our SUVs and lack of Arctic ice is also causing above normal snowcover currently in both Eurasia and North America.

Thanks. You are right. It looks like Wikipedia cuts off at category 3.
