As a scientist, I have of course followed the evolution of global warming‘, or now, ‘climate change’ for many years. Before it became politicized, not many people even knew about it, or took it seriously. These days, many people have an opinion, and I can say for certain, that and $5 will buy you a cup of coffee. Unfortunately, most don’t bother to actually read any actual scientific journal articles to really back up their opinion, one way or the other, and instead base it on politics. You know the drill, those who don’t like Al Gore, don’t ‘believe’ in climate change. Well, I for one am tired of people saying they don’t ‘believe’ in climate change. It’s not a religion to be believed in, it’s science, and the only way to arrive at a conclusion worth anything is if you do your homework. That means reading papers and thinking, and then you are entitled to your opinion, but that doesn’t guarantee that you are correct.
