Notice they don’t use meteorologists as sources. What does an “Earth scientist” know about climate change? Man was not even alive 232 million years ago.

The past is a guide to the future. Earth scientists know far more about long-term (thousands or millions of years) climate patterns than meteorologists ever will. There's a big difference between "climate" and "weather." Climate is what happens with weather patterns over long periods of time; weather, the domain of meteorologists, is the short-term study of what may happen next weekend.

“Earth Scientist” is a made-up word.
