Global warming is the biggest scam of all time. Science by consensus is not science.

Do you understand how peer-reviewed science works? It’s not the same kind of consensus as a group of committee members reaching a common conclusion they can all agree on. Scientific consensus means scientists have examined the data, repeated the experiments and data analysis, and drawn their own conclusions. If many different studies obtain the same results, then the original discovery or conclusion is confirmed.

In other words, scientists are not voting on whether anthropic global warming is valid or not. They are doing their own studies from a variety of different angles to see whether it is. And the vast majority have reached the same conclusion.

Of course, there are some studies that indicate otherwise, but they are comparatively few in number. Likewise, there are a few scientists who still don’t accept the theory of relativity or the Big Bang.
