It’s hard to believe, but apparently more than a few climate change deniers still roam our ever-heating planet. According to a recent study in the esteemed science journal PLOS, people systematically understate their disbelief in human-caused climate change when answering surveys, so skepticism is more prevalent than many of us realize.
Given the urgency of the climate crisis, it’s crucial that we all do our part to educate any doubters we might encounter. That’s why the Rainforest Alliance has compiled six arguments commonly made by climate change deniers, along with science-backed responses you can deploy to convince them of the truth: that climate change is real, accelerating, and that we need to take bold action ASAP
1. Climate change denier claim: “This is the coldest winter we’ve had in years! So much for global warming.”
There’s a difference between climate and weather: Weather fluctuates day in, day out, whereas climate refers to long term trends—and the overall trend is clearly and indisputably a warming one. While the impacts of climate change have only just begun to hit the Global North, farmers in the tropics have been contending with impacts—from droughts to floods to a proliferation of crop-destroying pests—for years

“So my question is, “How is an increase in plants on earth a catastrophic crisis?””
Well, considering that the globalist elitists want most of us dead....more plants means more food. They want us to have less food. Less food = less people (Agenda 21). They’ll have to make shock sure that there are less plants on planet earth going forward. Wonder how they will manage that....?
Bill Gates wants to put particles into the atmosphere, duplicating the effects of volcanic eruption activity....supposedly to affect the temperature. But that would also curtail plant life. Hmmm....
This article actually has some real arguments as opposed to the “12 Arguments” article posted later. But “debunking” should include actual facts, not warmist tropes.
Funny these articles are coming out at the same time - sounds like a major crackdown is coming against the reality based community.
There is not any soul that has ever lived, in the history of earth, that has ever denied that the climate changes. The essence of every climate is change.
This has worked for 10,000 years with no increase in taxes. Too hot? move north or to the coast. Too cold? Move south. Too much water? Move uphill.
In this century the climate could change once or twice. The sun, the angle of the earth’s axis toward the sun, volcanic action including under the sea determines climate. Not the level of taxation.
