In the future, there may not necessarily be more hurricanes, but there will likely be more intense hurricanes that carry higher wind speeds and more
precipitation as a result of global warming.

Because
of the first
of these reasons, were we to abruptly halt all emissions now, the sulfate aerosols would rapidly be removed from the atmosphere by
precipitation whereas the CO2 concentration would remain elevated, and so there would be a significant further
warming influence just
as a
result of past emissions; this
warming would lead to the quite significant
global warming that Lindzen mentions.
The
warming (WV is a ghg) is welcome (countering the average
global cooling which would otherwise be occurring
as a
result of declining net effect
of ocean cycles and a declining proxy which is the time - integral
of SSN anomalies) but the added WV increases the risk
of precipitation related flooding.
Even if
global warming wasn't a hoax a rise
of sea levels still is impossible to predict — e.g., some scientists believe that with
global warming there would be increased
precipitation and it could fall
as snow on a frozen Antarctica and stay there
resulting in falling sea levels.
Berkeley Lab researchers Dev Millstein and Surabi Menon found that atmospheric feedback — such
as changes in cloud cover or
precipitation — does have an important effect,
resulting in different amounts
of cooling in different cities, but that cool roofs and pavements are still beneficial for combating
global warming.
