Climate Change: Dysfunctional Dialog
A belief is the starting point of reason. If the facts do not support the belief, the reasonable person will cancel the erroneous belief. All beliefs are hypotheses until such time evidence supports the belief.
Climate Change is Real. What Causes it?
A movement of only one or two feet can change the sensation of irradiance from my fireplace. Imagine what happens when the distance between our earth and the sun changes by millions of miles.
