> the least they could do is seek out experts and remember that lobbyists are not impartial experts. Note that experts aren't impartial either. Yes, they may be impartial on some things (such as the appropriate length of packets), but those are rarely the issue in the political sphere.

There's nothing scientifically significant about 2 degrees warmer (1.5 and 2.5 are more and less of the same) yet look at how the "experts" talk about it.
