Some of these aren't even scientific discoveries:
- We’ve already changed the climate for the rest of this century
- There have been mass extinctions in the past, and we’re probably in one now.
Seriously?
- brazzy 16y agoYes, seriously. Realize that most of the doubt about climate change is engineered by astroturfing campaigns and financed by oil companies. Among the actual scientists, the overwhelming consensus is that climate change is happening on a scale that is threatening, and to a significant extent caused by humans.
- waratuman 16y agoThat is great! But the point is that this a prediction into the future and is not a fact. A fact is something that you can prove, and you can not prove the future. If you can, come talk to me we can start a business :)
- psyklic 16y agoIt isn't that WE are becoming extinct. The mass extinction is of other species due to us.
- angstrom 16y agoWe are the extinction-level event, but many people don't grasp that. Society is what's at stake. Humans can migrate and adapt as they have in the past.
