I agree with you... “Scientist Peter Raven” is a botanist not a “climate scientist”, but in most cases “climate scientist” is a misnomer these days. Leftist anti-capitalist climate activist would be more accurate in most cases.
Very true. I'm an engineer today. But if I were to get an interview on MSNBC and preach about how CO2 was killing mother earth, they would change my title to Climate Scientist, give me an honorary PHD from Stanford, have me sign an IPCC document and hand me a check for $5,000 and maybe even call me Reverand....."Reverand Tenacious1, PHD"... Hmmm.
Now that I think about it, I hope I didn't completely miss the boat on this one.
