Most climate scientists and many Americans link extreme weather to Climate change. However, sadly 1 out of every three have an alternative explanation for all the droughts, wildfires, hurricanes, derechos, tornados, heat waves, and melting arctic ice:

A third of Americans believe the intensity of recent natural disasters is linked to the Apocalypse described in the New Testament, according to a poll released Thursday. […]

Seeking to explain floods and heat or cold waves, 36 percent of those surveyed, and 66 percent of Evangelical Christians, evoke the end of the world, said the poll by the Public Religion Research Institute/Religion News Service.

Fortunately 63% of Americans go with the scientific explanation that climate change is the culprit. So I guess that is encouraging news.
