[QUOTE="GlabrousDory4, post: 73603699, member: 415804"] There are sources for this sort of thing. Hopefully someone has pointed you to Skepticalscience.com. Granted they come at it from the point of view of listing the bad science and countering it with good science so [I][U]it's not a denialist website[/U][/I]. It gives the denialist argument and then counters it with what the actual SCIENCE says. Those of us who have spent our lives in the physical sciences are rather familiar with the usual reasons to "doubt" anthropogenic global climate change and it's a relatively simple matter to debunk almost all of them almost immediately. That's how those of us with advanced degrees in the physical sciences know that likely anthropogenic global climate change is a real thing: 1. The science makes good sense even if you are not a full-on climatologist 2. The actual science (if you take the time to read it) supports the reality of the proposition 3. The usual denialist positions are easily and quickly debunked Before I got my PhD in geochem I spent a year working at a major East Coast oceanic research facility measuring atmospheric gases that exchanged with ocean water. I didn't work in the global climate change area but I was "adjacent" to them and met some of these folks you read about. They are doing solid science using truly solid methods. There's no shenanigans and if you think about it; you would be hard pressed to find a "denialist" in these facilities. All you need do is look at the denialist literature and you'll see that most of it is done by non-professionals and the quickest way to debunk them is to see how shoddy their data interpretation and methods are...assuming they have methods.
