Quote by: Pooeypants  I'm just sick of people who think they know more than an entire organisation dedicated to studying weather and climate, or science on a whole for that matter. I'm all for doubting, it's what science is all about, without it there is no progress but the criticism must be founded on good reasoning. All I see are layman's making a few points about "variables not accounted for blah blah", yet without any specifics. Why? Because a lot of them just don't know, they just read on sites that gave anecdotal evidence yet they still take that over peer reviewed published papers. |
Unfortunately, doubt is necessary for a field that has experienced so many cheats and biased findings. We shouldn't automatically reject it, if that's the source of your frustration, but we should be cautious.
