Idiot America is infested with millions of "human-caused global warming" deniers. Most of them are Republicans including President Fucktard Trump.

I recently threw out my Wall Street Journal subscription. I now get the New York Times and I'm learning quite a bit about science. When the Wall Street Journal had an article about global warming the article denied the whole thing. Their moron customers (Republican fucktards) liked that.

New York Times - Climate Change Is Complex. We’ve Got Answers to Your Questions.

By JUSTIN GILLIS

We know. Global warming is daunting. So here’s a place to start: 17 often-asked questions with some straightforward answers.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••

How do we know humans are responsible for the increase in carbon dioxide?

This one is nailed down.

Hard evidence, including studies that use radioactivity to distinguish industrial emissions from natural emissions, shows that the extra gas is coming from human activity. Carbon dioxide levels rose and fell naturally in the long-ago past, but those changes took thousands of years. Geologists say that humans are now pumping the gas into the air much faster than nature has ever done.

Why do people deny the science of climate change?

Mostly because of ideology.

Instead of negotiating over climate change policies and trying to make them more market-oriented, some political conservatives have taken the approach of blocking them by trying to undermine the science.

President Trump has sometimes claimed that scientists are engaged in a worldwide hoax to fool the public, or that global warming was invented by China to disable American industry. The climate denialists’ arguments have become so strained that even oil and coal companies have distanced themselves publicly, though some still help to finance the campaigns of politicians who espouse such views.
