That same article starts with

"Before I start, let me say as clearly as possible that I agree with the scientific consensus on climate change. If science says something is true – according to most scientists, and consistent with the scientific method – I accept their verdict."

I think we'll have to agree to disagree. I think that opening statement is a rhetorical device.

Oh, it absolutely is. Scott Adams does this kind of thing all the time.

Paraphrased, but this is something else he posted: "Let me say that I am a Hillary supporter..." ok... "because if I supported Trump, then Hillary supports would kill me." wtf?
