- acuteaura 1mo agoOh, what a wonderful shorthand to dismiss an entire article.
- mnewme 1mo agoSad to see how many climate sceptics are even on HN
- qsera 1mo agoYea, it is as if some people can still think on their own...
- lioeters 1mo agoThe best kind of propaganda is when people believe they're "thinking on their own" while repeating some convenient lie to keep the grift going. If you think that doesn't apply to you, then it's working as designed.
- qsera 1mo agoAt least I am falling to the best kind of propaganda. While the other side, who does not apparently even believe they're "thinking on their own", is falling to a much poorer one...
- lioeters 1mo agoAnd nobody learned a thing.
- qsera 1mo agoAt least there is some hope for that for the side who believes they can think.
- mnewme 1mo agoYou should stop thinking about sides. There are no sides. There are different opinions and facts
- qsera 1mo agoYea, the other guy also want me to stop thinking...
- mnewme 1mo agoActually the reverse is true. I would encourage you to think more and actually read and understand what 99% of science says since 50 years and why so many people come to the same results
- defrost 1mo agoHave you read the IPCC report? Do you have any kind of physics education and experience in real world thermodynamics at scale? Have you read, for example, Thermal Equilibrium of the Atmosphere with a Given Distribution of Relative Humidity - Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences Volume 24 Issue 3 (1967) - https://journals.ametsoc.org/view/journals/atsc/24/3/1520-0469_1967_024_0241_teotaw_2_0_co_2.xml https://journals.ametsoc.org/view/journals/atsc/24/3/1520-04... Think away, by all means, but at least make it focused and directed and look beyond the shallow climate denial sites such as WUWT, JoNova, et al.

- mnewme 1mo agoThinking for yourself doesn’t mean rejecting science and 50 years of research in an area where there’s a rare 99% consensus among scientists (check: Lynas et al., Environmental Research Letters), just because some guys on social media said so.
