US President Joe Biden agreed that there is no absolute certainty that the deadly tornado swarm that struck several US states was caused by climate change, but also noted that the size of the disaster is unusual.
🗣"We can't say with absolute certainty that it was because of climate change... there is a lot of things that we don't know for certain, I don't want to say anything that's not precisely true," Biden said when asked if the tornado was caused by climate change. "What is certain is it is one of the worst tornado disasters that we've had in the country."
Biden added, however, that it is noted with certainty how the tornadoes formed, how many places they touched down and the length of their paths.
