RE: Scientific Consensus: This phrase should make you cringe. At least if you understand science.

in #science8 years ago

Government funding and the fact that funding goes to pro-climate change studies have corrupted the system. Is there climate change, clearly, is it caused by humans, don't know, we are also part of the earth. Do butterflies disrupt the winds?

Sort:  

Sure this is another reason I am not a denier. I've seen how asphalt can change climate. Massive temperature differentials as heat absorbed during the day is released. So do humans likely impact the climate? Sure. The question ultimately is to what degree. Then if it is a perceivable problem we should look for actual solutions, not play political games and allow the snake oil salesmen to call the shots.

If people do CHALLENGE the findings with science, then their challenge should be met with science. It should not be met with attempts to shut it down due to the phrase "consensus".
