I've noticed that most of the people who believe in anthropological global warming know next to nothing about data. When you ask them why they believe in AGW they almost always just say "because 97% of scientists believe we are warming the planet". Putting aside that this 97% figure is a lie that traveled around the world (actually 2/3 of "scientists" of all kinds of different backgrounds have no opinion), saying "because scientists say so" is not data. It's a logical fallacy (fundamental attribution error).
And when you confront believers in AGW about the Vostok / Greenland ice core data they say "Huh?" Never heard of it.
Or if you ask them what they think of the Danish Meteorilogical Institute that demonstrated a direct correlation between sun spots and earth temperature, they've never heard of that either.
Or if you confront them about the short, cherry picked time period that AGW supporters use to create their "hockey stick", they have no answer. They usually just get defensive.

You missed the memo declaring that AGW is now climate change since AGW has been disproven.
Maybe some "say" they are Believers to avoid the ridicule and judgement heaped on those who question. Deviate from the lock-step and one might at least: no longer be welcome at the cool-kids table (as is often the mind-set of those frozen in perpetual adolescence) or at worst, be branded as an apostate. Some will always swear that Eastasia really is at war with Oceania. It's a path-of-least-resistance social survival skill.
Reminds me of activists who replace "illegal immigrants" with just "immigrants".
If it's just "climate change" then why are they still trying to reduce CO2 emissions? We humans can't control temperature.
In order to extract massive revenues from carbon taxes. Those revenues will fund international do-good projects such as transferring moneys to the likes of Kabila, Mugabe and Assad to help their people cope with "climate change." The money will cool off nicely in Switzerland's numbered bank accounts.
Pretty much. They don't understand science, so they just think what the PSM (Propaganda Stream Media) tells them to think. Gullible. Easy to manipulate simple minds.
