I have spent a considerable amount of time talking about global warming and related subjects, but I have yet to really talk about the other side of the argument. I only think it’s fair that both sides be stated. There are those who are skeptical about the seriousness or even the existence of global warming, making arguments that range from claiming that there is no direct link to humans contributing to rising global temperatures to the date gathered is forced, incomplete, and even inaccurate.
Let me just say that I am in agreement with the majority of scientists and with the mounting data being collected stating that global warming is a real and serious threat that needs to be handled now before it’s to late to do anything about it. The skeptics are in denial, due to political or economic reasons, and they refuse to engage properly in the debate by acknowledging the evidence of the opposing side. So in order to make sense of what the skeptics are claiming, I will line their argument up with the scientific consensus so that way it will be clear what the skeptics are responding to in their claims and just what evidence they are overlooking when they claim such things.
To compare the skeptics against the consensus, continue reading on my Skepticism Page.
I agree…and it is kind of scary to think that the number of Americans that believe global warming exists is at its lowest ever!
