Video and still images of extreme weather makes them more likely to be interpreted as catastrophes then 50 years ago, let alone 500.
Everyone saw what happened in Joplin and Tuscaloosa and New Orleans. That's not always been the case and there is no way to scientifically measure, for example, how many F-5 tornadoes occurred in North America in the 17th century.
...and since when are earthquakes and volcanic eruptions 'weather'.
I'm not saying there is no merit to climate change simply that the premise here isn't very solid.
