“Climate change will increase opportunities to see rainbows… by 2100, the average land location on Earth will experience about 5% more days with rainbows…”

I've been a geologist/geophysicist in the "climate wrecking industry since 1981, including a six-year exile into management. The vast majority of my career has been spent in the Gulf of Mexico, primarily in the East Cameron South Addition, Garden Banks (East Cameron South Addition South), Green Canyon and Mississippi Canyon areas.
I also have a strong interest in paleoclimatology and am a frequent contributor to Watts Up With That? https://wattsupwiththat.com/author/debunkhouse/
