@democra04254334 @Colin01170957 @GeraldKutney There's no consensus among scientists on any non-trivial point of the climate change debate.

Have you ever wondered why Doran, Cook, etc. NEVER ask in their polls whether manmade climate change is HARMFUL? They only ask if it's REAL. (Of course it is.)

@democra04254334 @Colin01170957 @GeraldKutney They don't ask if CO2 is harmful because they know if they asked THAT question they'd find no consensus. The evidence shows manmade climate change is modest & benign, and CO2 emissions are beneficial. Elevated CO2 greens the Earth & feeds her people.

@democra04254334 @Colin01170957 @GeraldKutney However, there's a strong consensus among scientists in the relevant field (which is agronomy!) that elevated levels of the "precious air fertilizer" (CO2) are highly beneficial for crops. That fact has been settled science for a century.

@democra04254334 @Colin01170957 @GeraldKutney Here're some peer-reviewed papers showing that CO2 is beneficial, and the "social cost of carbon" is negative.

@democra04254334 @Colin01170957 @GeraldKutney The "climate crisis" is a political fiction. The scientific evidence is compelling that manmade global warming is real, but modest & benign, and CO2 emissions are very beneficial. Scientists call warm periods, like our current climate, “climate optimums.”
