OH no!!! The sky is falling!! The Sky is falling!! Let's spend billions of dollars on stupid scams like wind and solar power - who cares what it costs!!! Such a load of garbage.

Didn't say I know better than everyone. Perhaps, I simply find the work of the scientists who dedicate their lives in understanding this and who don't agree with the scientist you choose to believe more believable :up:

Even syria is on board now . I would say the consensus is the majority of humans on earth know,the science that says yes humans do makexa,impact in the rate in warming

Let us know when these targets are actually met and how they reached them before deciding on who's "on board" :up:

I do not know the polling data of climatologists, so I can't see for sure what they think. There is some polling data on meteorologists, and they seem to be quite mixed in their views.

Given the fact, we don't know what percentage of experts say way, we can only use logic and reason and science to figure out how to deal to deal with the warming.

You keep using the appeal to authority fallacy and the red herring. When a pediatrician says your child has cancer, that's a serious diagnosis, which is why people will often get a second opinion. Treating someone for cancer they don't have is bad, and it happens from time to time.

It's not an authority fallacy when one is appealing to the authority of those who are the actual authorities in the field in question. Start at 22s in to avoid irrelevant content.

I suppose the Syrians now will have to cut back on power usage, and pay a carbon tax (since having 1 TV and 1 light bulb per home is too much), and they will all receive a Macron personally signed edition of a Paris Solar Panel so they can rebuild their lives. Why join the Paris Accord when you have barely nothing to adopt? I suppose the cheque is in the mail.
