There's a difference between approaching a subject with scientific validity and questioning and approaching a subject with complete disdain for the theory and the inability to reason objectively.
Many people that are 'against' climate change do not approach it scientifically or in any sort of scholarly manner.
Scientists from several universities and research centers even asked Obama to use the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) to prosecute groups that “have knowingly deceived the American people about the risks of climate change, as a means to forestall America’s response to climate change.”
To be clear . . . that’s $22 billion of taxpayers’ money . . . the amount that our government pays to stop the “global warming” epidemic. That comes out to $41,856 every minute.

The Cold Truth
Climate Change Business Journal estimates the Climate Change Industry is a $1.5 Trillion dollar escapade, which means four billion dollars a day is spent on our quest to change the climate. That includes everything from carbon markets to carbon consulting, carbon sequestration, renewables, biofuels, green buildings and insipid cars. For comparison global retail sales online are worth around $1.5 trillion. So all the money wasted on the climate is equivalent to all the goods bought online.

I guess you never heard of the US government then eh.
The still have to prove their case don't they??? If they can't prove wrong doing then they have no case against anyone. But if they can then possible action may be needed. Is that wrong??? Should we just allow any organization to push whatever BS they want because nobody can trust anyone to do a proper investigation???
Really prosecuting people for disagreeing?

The solution is just to bill Republicans for all the damage caused so far by global warming. We could start with the 3 million Japanese people who have just been evacuated from their homes due to unprecedented flooding. Finding them new homes should be pretty spendy. The total bill should be in the trillions and when they can't pay all of it then we can lock them up

It's the opposite of crying fire in a crowded theater - it's closer to not crying fire when there actually is one
Yes - we are at that point
I don't expect the flat earthers to understand, but the willful dishonestly of big money energy companies threatens our survival
This is no longer about your opinion - nobody cares about your opinion
We have work to do
