  1. "singehandedly", haha. Right. As if this guy is the only one. It's so interesting to me how this particular subject makes people abandon scientific rigour on such a mass level. Evern she does. The tell is "climate denier". That's a religious phrase, not a scientific one.

  2. Yeah that phrase got me too. For some reason, the climate has turned into religion with hard-core zealots on both sides. She shows which side of the religion she's on here.

  3. Exactly. Any argument that has confidence in itself should welcome any and all confrontation confidently. @alegriart

  4. "singlehandedly"? Are you serious? Clmate science has been cherry picked and fudged over and over and over for ages. If anybody thinks that all the climate science you read is on the up and up I've got a bridge to sell you. The system is set up right now to incentivize doom and gloom results. It's almost impossible to get published if your results or anything contra the narrative.

  5. I agree with you, but only if we acknowledge that the journals themselves are part of that equation.

  6. I haven't lost all respect for her because I do think she's overall a force for good and a good person but man o man I hope she wakes up to this because I did lose a certain amount of respect for her with that for sure.  @tuberroot1112

  7. Yeah I can't believe she said "singlehandedly". This is absolutely rampant. Scientists are absolutely incentivized to come up with the most extreme answers possible. How that's even up for debate is beyond me.

  8. If I do a sunshine dance for 12 days in a row, and every time the next day is sunny, and then I don't do the dance for two days and it rains both of those days, and then I do the dance again for the next week and it's sunny every day, am I responsible for the sunshine?

  9. Haha, I like it. I don't 100% discount any crazy idea outright. If I can't disprove it, I leave the door the tiniest of cracks open @MartinMaat
