(Before It's News)

Dr. Martin HoerlingDr. Martin Hoerling (NOAA)AUSTRALIA’S Climate Commission has misrepresented data from the leading US meteorological bureau to highlight a link between climate change and the severity of Superstorm Sandy which this week crippled New York.

In a statement on the disaster that hit North America on Monday, the federal government-sponsored Climate Commission said “all the evidence suggests that climate change exacerbated the severity of Hurricane Sandy”.

Matthew England, chairman of the commission’s Science Advisory Panel, said it was important to get the message out that storms today were “operating in a different environment than they were 100 years ago”.
