World Bank President Slammed on Climate Change

[Cletus]

He's a coward.

[Ethereal]

I don’t know that I’d consider accepting fact based science as cultish…but the training line was a bit odd.

That is not how science works. It's not about "acceptance". All scientific findings, theories, and laws are tentative by definition. Science is not a list of truths or facts that must be accepted without question. Science is a process of testing hypotheses, recording observations, and generating possible explanations, nothing more, nothing less.

[RMNIXON]

As I said, his comments were interpreted incorrectly. Clearly some saw his ambiguous answer as a denial of reality.

Acknowledging facts isn’t an appeal to authority. It’s just an illustration of how climate science is far from the pseudoscience you claim. And this follow the money talking point, is just another conspiracy theory. Comparing that conspiracy theory to others like flat earth, isn’t a strawman. It’s just an apt comparison.

You didn't post any relevant facts, you posted a consensus argument. Along with trying to shame me with invalid comparisons I don't support and repeating same above. You can pronounce all you want it does make it a valid argument against anything I actually posted.

Explain the notion of Climate Change as testable and falsifiable? Take all the time you want...........

And the money argument is no climate denial conspiracy theory just common sense. I don't trust the tobacco companies or oil companies to undertake objective science as the left so often claim. I simply use logic to apply the same to money driven Climate Change studies in Universities and labs on the payroll to find specific results. No less than Eisenhower talked about this corruption in the speech quoted by lefties all the time, only they ignore that bit about the corruption of science through government money, all they hear is the Military and Industry.

[RMNIXON]

COVID, Ukraine, "climate change", there is always some fake crisis that requires more government as a solution.

And how convenient that "Climate Change" requires the very same dismantling of Western Capitalist Industrial Societies and Redistribution of Wealth and Resources policies the academic left have been pushing since the 1960's.

Wow, what a coincidence!

I think people overreacted to his comments. But given the fact that there are so many people who choose to ignore scientific evidence, I can understand why some jumped to conclusions.

Climate science, at least those caught in the politics of it, is indeed a cult.

Not to nit pick but I don't think it is fact based. I think it is accepted as conclusory based on modeling. At least that's what the folks at the Great Lakes Science Center told me.

Right. Computer models. For climate, there are around a dozen accepted models and only a few predict the doom the climate nuts and the legacy media keep screeching about.
