When the agreement is near unanimous like in this case, it doesn't matter who doesn't believe in it.

Fools are fools and there will always be some.

That one guy may simply have dementia or be bought off. Best to ignore them.

That is what the scientists do.

>>For instance

You can’t help yourself!

Let’s be fair. These guys are not idiots and neither are they ignorant. They just realize the science isn’t there. They don’t hold themselves out as AGW experts. They are just talking about the differences between good and bad science.

And this ought to be the focal point. Last night I watched a speech by Musk in which he cited the old 97 percent rubbish. Musk isn’t an idiot. He knows that number isn’t a meaningful one.

But he is selling something and it sounds good.

Both guys are physicists for crying out loud and old and the top guy said he knew little about it and spent one day on google. He sounds like i-node-lol.

. Who cares what he says.

The field is atmospheric chemistry, not physics and the climate scientists spend decades on global warming

I listened to a bit of both videos and they seemed like fools to me, defending right wing ideology. Maybe for money.

They both keep saying there is very little evidence.They are nuts.

I advise the right wingers to avoid nuts and I would advise you the same way.

Nobel winning scientists who get outside their lane are just as kooky as any layman. Remember the magic vitamin C and Linus Pauling?
