/sci/ - Science & Math

Science doesn't have a government.
Even if this is true, it still isn't grounds for denying the anthropogenic nature of climate change and ocean acidification. One bad apple does not spoil the bunch. This whole thing stinks of an ExxonMobil False Flag.

This thread is a perfect example of what the fossil fuel industry wanted to achieve, a discussion that is confusing and casts doubt, without having any basis in the scientific evidence. Just look at the comments and the "discussions" if you can even call them that from the deniers in this thread for example.

Their strategy works, it worked with Tobacco in the 1980s and 1990s, and it's continuing to work with climate change to this day. Useful idiots eat misinformation up, and spread it around like viruses. The discussion remains chaotic and confusing, as well as vague so that there's no clear information presented.

I mean honestly, the industry's strategy has clearly worked, it's amazing how much falsehood there is in regards to climate science among your average person, especially in the US. Their arguments don't need to be correct, they don't need to be supported by evidence, they only need to cast doubt and create an environment in which normal, uninformed people continue to parrot the falsehoods.

No
It's real
It's caused by humans
It's a threat to the future of everyone browsing this board
It's not a threat to the vastly wealthy people responsible for it
It's being constantly belittled by them and their cronies because responding to it will reduce their short term profits
