The real climate system has feedback loops (positive and negative), delays , and thresholds we don’t fully understand. That’s why even IPCC models have wide uncertainty ranges.increasing politicization and dogmatism of the field, which your response proves. Disagreeing with orthodoxy isn’t insanity, it’s science. Dr. Freeman Dyson (renowned physicist): “The models do a very poor job of describing the clouds, the dust, the chemistry, and the biology of fields and farms and forests. They may get some things right, but they're not reliable.” “Climate is the long-term average of weather, over 30 years.” definition , not argument. It’s not a counterpoint to the claim that climate has become a political weapon . Science as a method is neutral. But climate policy , climate funding , and climate alarmism are political, and increasingly punitive.“Most of the world is unable to adapt, so yeah, you are a sociopath.” realistic and necessary adaptation strategies is the kind of hysterical absolutism that kills debate. You’re effectively saying: “Because some people can’t adapt, no one should.”Adaptation is the only approach that benefits the vulnerable now . Bjorn Lomborg, Copenhagen Consensus : “Climate change is real and man-made, but our policies should focus on smart solutions, adaptation and innovation, rather than panic.”
