Who is EcoWatch? I can't find any information on this group other than a website. Would you tell us who the scientists are, OP? The author of the piece you referenced, Nika Knight, is not a scientist:

Journalist with an emphasis on the environment, indigenous rights and international literature.
Freelance German translator.
Living in midcoast Maine.

I think I saw an article that says that we are doomed for good... there is nothing you can do to change it... its over, by a global warming scientist in California... so doing anything now would be pointless, so why is it that the still want to tax me and take my money into their pockets??? Its over but I still want your money... you got to love Global Warming Religion...

I do not understand the mindset of those that deny science, particularly now that the changing climate can be observed...

Greenland is losing about 8,300 tonnes of ice per second each day.

Quote:
"That's a rapid, rapid mass loss that's occurring in Greenland right now and it's actually changing the Earth's gravity field so quickly that we can detect it with satellite."
Quote:
"The rate of mass loss that the ice sheet is now exhibiting, post 2010, is somewhere in the neighbourhood of three times higher than the rate of mass loss prior to the 1980s."

A group of international experts is urging science ministers at the first White House Arctic Science Ministerial meeting to take immediate steps to mitigate drastic climate change impacts in the Arctic.
The meeting, which takes place today in Washington, D.C., will bring together key science leaders from around the world — as well as Indigenous representatives — to discuss Arctic research, monitoring and data-sharing.

You're talking with liberals (and cultists). Facts have no power here.

Actually it has been cooling for the last 6,000 years, up until the beginning of the industrial age when it began warming rapidly.
