So I chose I don't care.
Okay, thanks for your input.

Perhaps "Other" would be a better option in your case.

You didn't vote. Why not?

What's terrible about it?

Too much science?

That's true. What's false is that it's a hoax.

It's not pseudoscience. Right-wing denialists argue such because the science contradicts their talking points is all. No denialist can provide the real science that exposed the previous theory as false, all they can do is show us other right-wingers claiming it's pseudoscience.

Politics created a corrupt science. It used to be that science would discover something & politicians would try to act on it. In this case billionaires & politicians came up with an agenda & then funded scientists to create science to support their agenda. This " climate science" is to actual science, as professional wrestling is to actual wrestling.

Here is my reply:

Climate change is

Real

Human Influenced

Influenced by CO2

Currently not accurately modeled (meaning we don't have an actually accurate long-term global climate model like we do for weather)

Your poorly designed poll is working to prove the point you manufactured it to produce?

Good for you.

A few comprehensive global weather computer models exist:

ECMF
