#2It is poignant to see a Louisiana congressperson pushing for disinformation to be unmarked, especially climate change disinformation, since Louisiana is continually falling into the sea due to climate change. In some sense, they do it to themselves.
Edit: Downvoters, look at the satellite images [0] and tell me that Louisiana isn't drowning, falling into the sea. Tell me that Louisiana doesn't do this to itself with jungle primaries and fake maps. By deliberately ignoring the problem, they make it worse.

#3This is yet another reminder that climate change is not a science / technology issue. Science has been settled, technology exists. It's a moral courage issue. Moral courage that our leaders lack. So we have to do it ourselves. There are two broad categories of actions one can take. 1) personal life-style changes 2) system change activism. We are at the point where anyone concerned about the climate change has to do both. Nobody is gonna do it for you.

Thr problem lies not with the leaders, at least not in the western world, people just need to stop voting for conspiracy theorists, it really is that simple.

That is simply not true. No one is on track to meet the Paris agreement goals. This is not because every government is lead by conspiracy theorists.

Science has been settled
Science can never be so arrogant. Most people probably know this but it's worth restating in a heated debate about the 'evidence': The null hypothesis exists for a reason; that is because we can not prove anything. We can only eliminate those theories which are demonstrably false.

Are you being pedantic, or, if someone is not worked up about "science has been settled", are they playing loose with truth?

#10They fact checked "Humans are not causing a massive 6th extinction" as false.
So we are causing an extinction as big-ish as the last 5 and that's settled science? Not allowed to debate?
That's why you can't trust fact checkers.
And a big wow lie from the fact checkers, it implies he wants coal fired stoves.
“Our work has shown much higher cancer risk from coal-burning stoves compared to wood-burning stoves”
Noone anywhere is suggesting people go to coal fired stoves. What a lie, clearly he is talking electric stoves, which is know as fact would save hundreds of thousands of lives yearly if people went to. This is a huge push in the NGO's dealing with health.
