- thefurman 8y agoUsing a comic strip as an argument, well...
- JeffreyKaine 8y agoXKCD has a long history of citing their work, why can't an effective argument be made with visuals? I don't understand why the medium of the argument matters here.
- thefurman 8y agoThere is no argument made, it's a comic strip.
- JeffreyKaine 8y agoThere is definitely an argument made. It might not be in the form that you're looking for, but the argument is there. The graph clearly points to a high correlation between the industrial revolution and a fast and huge (relative to other changes) rise in temperatures. How is this not an argument?
- thefurman 8y agoYes, very clearly, sure. You don't even know the very basics of scientific methodology, statistics, interpreting data, or critical thinking.
- orf 8y agoIt's actually a graph presented in a great way. Read it
- erikig 8y agoComic or not - what a great infographic
- Faaak 8y agoIt's a really simple explanation to refute deniers, not a scientific paper
- civility 8y agoI really wish XKCD would've gone back 400,000 years instead of only 20,000 for that strip. CO2 and temperature have been higher during the longer time frame, and it would be valuable for someone to explain the bigger picture adequately.
