That's because 'denier" is a word used in reference to people who aren't really scientists.So, I'll take it that we won't expect to see you in the bullring anytime soon.
Too bad.
It would be good to see a real debate on this topic.
Oh well.
Post evidence proving human beings have zero impact on the climate.
First, I am not sure I believe they don't. I think I've stated that.
Second, I asked him to take his debate to a venue where just his facts and his single opponents facts could be evaluated. That way we could see what both sides have to present and what information they feel is the most meaningful. I grow tired of having certain organizations held up as "the standard". Or if your doctor tells you he needs to cut off your balls do you just march in and have it done without really trying to understand why (but he is the expert....what could you possibly know). It's a legitimate suggestion.
Third, your request is silly. If you had said, prove humans have inconsequential impact on climate or consequential impact, then the question would have turned to a matter of metrics (which is probably where this whole disagreement resides anyway). After all some "deniers" would claim that volcanos have more impact than humans. And "alarmists" would argue that "rising ocean levels are a real concern. What is impact and why be concerned.
Lastly, is there a reason he shouldn't go there. Or do we continue with the proliferation of meaningless threads (which the OP starts) which all end with the same name calling, appeal to authority riddled, selective data plastered...goop ?
You criticism is spot on, it is a queston of metrics. That said, my question was loaded for emphasis, in fact some deniers are simply kooks who don't have any specialized knowledge. As for the alarmists, their concern isn't based on a fallacy but on data such as this:
NOAA s Ten Signs of a Warming World Temperature of the Lower Atmosphere
Denier is not a word used by real scientists, it's an AGWCult secret handshake word. That's how they identify each other
Are you saying no scientist is a denier....?
Or that any scientist who denies is now no longer a scientist ?
