Schools are now forcing children to believe in something called Global Warming. Hundreds of years ago Europeans were convinced that the earth was flat and if you travelled too far it could be dangerous.

When are the Fox news followers going to realize that 98% of all climate scientists say "global warming is happening."

Fox news lies about global warming not happening, as a favor for corporations like ExxonMobile.


Who should you trust, 98% of climate scientists or Fox news?

Quoted for irony.

So where did that famous “consensus” claim that “98% of all scientists believe in global warming” come from? It originated from an endlessly reported 2009 American Geophysical Union (AGU) survey consisting of an intentionally brief two-minute, two question online survey sent to 10,257 earth scientists by two researchers at the University of Illinois. Of the about 3.000 who responded, 82% answered “yes” to the second question, which like the first, most people I know would also have agreed with.

The following link is from NASA. Remember NASA is able to send people to the moon, and send robots to the surface of Mars. Point is people at NASA are some of the smartest people on Earth.

A Chilling Possibility - NASA Science


Most scientists are very scared about human caused global warming.
Global warming could stop deep ocean currents, or it may cause our major crop food plants to stop growing where they grow now.

Scientists say the ice is already starting to melt at the North Pole.


But Fox news and the CEO's from ExxonMobile told you "global warming is (not) happening."

How can you trust Fox news more than NASA and climate scientists, in matters of global warming?

Its actually 97% of climate scientists not 98%, I apologize for the error.

Is there a scientific consensus on global warming?

The above link states that 97% of climate scientists say global warming is happening.



The source you listed was from Forbes. Forbes is controlled by CEO's who make billions of dollars a year, from releasing green house gases.


Who should we trust, CEO's who make billions of dollars a year from burning oil and coal, or scientists?

(I already know you trust the CEO's who fund/control Forbes, more than scientists.)

I'm sure by posting that link you completely missed the irony. You post a link from an obviously biased site and then complain about others doing that.

The 97-98% claim is anything but scientific.

Sounds like you might subscribe to Creationism, the disbelief in science, and the desire to replace Biblical tenets and mythology with what is actuall real science.
