Climate change skeptic turned proponent
#14
RE: Climate change skeptic turned proponent
Even though I am educated up to Masters level in Physics, I wouldn't dream of doing anything other than accepting what those at the forefront of physics say about the latest research. I just don't have the expertise.

Yet you have people that have no formal education in climate science, and most having last studied science as a child, thinking that they know more than the experts. Climate science seems to suffer from this more than most, possibly because people can more likely form an uneducated opinion on "is it hotter this year?" rather than "what is the best way of incorporating general relativity and quantum mechanics?". I really feel sorry for the scientists that have to put up with this.
