- graeme 7y agoThat's from the article. The author of that post has had virtually all of his work funded by the oil industry. That doesn't make him wrong, but it does raise questions. There are also few who agree with his stance. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2015/02/26/uds-david-legates-caught-climate-change-controversy/24090273/ https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2015/02/26/uds-david-leg... Fully examining arguments against Legates would be a lot of work, but here's a discussion of his most recent paper. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/climate-consensus-97-per-cent/2015/jun/03/research-downplaying-impending-global-warming-is-overturned https://www.theguardian.com/environment/climate-consensus-97...

- graeme 7y agoOops, my mistake. I meant to link two articles, left off the second. This is the one I was referring to with my final para. Will edit my comment above if I can https://www.theguardian.com/environment/climate-consensus-97-per-cent/2015/jun/03/research-downplaying-impending-global-warming-is-overturned https://www.theguardian.com/environment/climate-consensus-97...
