The weatherman still has trouble predicting tomorrows temperature, but you think that a scientist definitely knows what the temperature will be 50 years from now? Climate change will never be agreed upon because all the scientific "conclusions" are based on simulations that will never be able include every parameter that determines climate.

Most educated people believe that we should use more renewable energy, cut down on waste, and preserve natural environments. The problem begins when the government starts putting restrictions on what kind of vehicles we can buy, how much fuel we can use, how much electricity we can consume and enabling extra taxes and fines for non-compliance. The next generation of politicians can't stop salivating over carbon taxes. Their heads almost exploded when Trump took the US out of the Paris Climate Accord.

These same politicians are the ones that decide what research projects get funded. Do you think they will fund a research project that would disprove climate change? Scientists need to eat too, that's why they only research things they know will get funding.

Meanwhile, MAJOR polluters get ignored. The 16 largest ocean freight ships produce more emissions than all the cars in world combined. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-1229857/How-16-ships-create-pollution-cars-world.html

East Asian shithole countries are destroying the Pacific ocean with litter and over fishing. Let's do something about that before they turn the whole thing into a dead zone.
