When future historians write about the 21st century, the greatest enigma of these times will be how and why so many people believed Donald Trump and denied the science of climate change.

Climate deniers, do you go to a butcher to get medical advice when a family member is sick?
If the answer is no, then why do go to a blog or post of some nobody to get advice about the science of climate change.

Trump has already done more than enough to be declared the worst president in US history ... the only remaining question is how far he will take down America before his term ends.
Decades will pass before America can recover from this disaster.

Dare I say, I think many Americans needed to see this ugly side. Who would have thought giving billionaires unfettered power was a bad idea. This is what oligarchy looks like. It's dangerous. We're in a class war. Treat it as such. If billionaires line up to endorse a candidate, vote to stop them!

I used to reply to climate deniers with links to science, but no longer, as I quickly discovered that they did not care. They have no interest in learning about science. They just want to debate, using lies and conspiracy theories. Now I just discredit them for their follies.

Mark Carney is attempting to reduce the temperature of the environment ... the political environment, which was boiling over with potential disastrous consequences to Canada. When this cools, then global warming can be put back on the agenda in Canada.

Ask a climate denier for their links to their info, and they go into panic mode ... either running away back into their dark holes ... blocking you ... or completely switching topics.
Why?
Even they are ashamed of their sources.

This is also true of Trumpers. Some prefer to be filled with hate and to continue destroying —destroying truth, justice, kindness, compassion, everything good.

Tell them to read Breaking Boundaries, then come back for a debate. I’m trained in meteorology so I forget how complex the atmospheric sciences are, but this book was a masterpiece to me. I’d love to shake Rockstroms hand. Pure Genius.

As a climate change scientist, I think this ties with overt antagonistic bigotry. We openly damage the planet, Her creatures/plants, AND the humans we share it with. It's depressing. It's harmful. It's evil.
