Believe me, scientists are very well aware of the problems in academia, publishing papers, peer reviewing, it is not perfect. But don't make the mistake to turn this into a global elitist conspiracy, yes there are some people who like to control the narative, but you really need to learn to distinct good from bad scientists. For starter, people who make money only by telling some other people that everything they believe in is crap, and that all other people except your little group needs to wake up and dont be sheep, that shouldnt be the guys/girls to trust.

No. This study can be used to change public policy in hundreds of countries. Its importance is paramount, and the findings can be used to radically alter and remove your freedoms, so the default position should be to not trust it. Before we believe a shred of it, every input needs to be thoroughly investigated and reviewed by multiple independent parties. The reason I am claiming this is a conspiracy is because it perfectly lines up with globalist elitist talking points. That flawless supporting study is their dream come true, which is enough of a reason to cry foul.

  No, you're just talking bollocks. There is no replication crisis in everyday, known physics. We know how the greenhouse effect works, better than we know how gravity works.

    What is your evidence? What is your proof besides simply claiming something is a lie? I've given you my sources. Why don't you give me yours.

      My sources for physics? Do you want me to link to some textbooks or something? Learn some stuff is the best I can do for you just now, I think. Edit: oh wait, Khan Academy has some physics courses I believe; you could probably do that.

    Ironically, we know precious little about gravity. We couldn't even properly scale our classic understanding of gravity to orbital mechanics without significantly upgrading our models. And discoveries in particle physics expand our understanding of the phenomenon in completely wild ways.
