In the face of generalized malfeasance across all domains, peoples faith in climate change will remain. Surely, that science must be the one that is correct?

Dr Harvey and Irma are replicating that science for you.

I wasn't really trying to be that much of a smartass. When you read the parent article and a couple of others that have been posted recently dealing with replication problems; it makes you wonder if we have facts to enact sweeping societal change.

When Bill Nye starts calling for burning of the heretics:

I wonder if fact or emotion is guiding us here.

Does a couple of hurricanes prove this? For those with faith it does. Congrats.
