To expand a bit on my previous comment, the sad part is that even though we know that the topic is not really controversial scientifically, we somehow, subconsciously, refer to it as one.
Elections and all that.
- ensignavenger 10y agoEven accepting the science, there is plenty of room for controversy over what actions should be taken as a result.
- blackflame7000 10y agoYea the true controversy isn't weather the climate is changing but rather the rate at which it is occurring and the degree to which humans should intervene to take corrective action.
- ensignavenger 10y agoAnd amongst the options of ways to intervene which ones to choose? Some of which are probably mutually exclusive.
- mikeash 10y agoAll something needs to be controversial is for there to be a great deal of public disagreement about it. Climate change definitely qualifies. Unfortunately, this has just about nothing to do with factual basis, evidence, etc.
