Climate Change is now established religion - the Socialists Church of Green.

It has become a state sponsored religion.

It is settled science (doctrine) - debate is closed, deniers are shunned and decent is punished.

[W]e felt that video would be the best medium with the goal of helping the public better get to know the scientists personally, since when you see and hear someone talking it’s easy to make your own impression of their sincerity and conviction.”

The scientific method has been shoved out the door - "modeling" has replaced science.

Look at how sincere they are - do not relay on facts.

New step added to scientific method “How do you feel about your hypothesis?”

Joseph Goebbels was a family man, too.

Yes, they are more than scientists, they are democrat operatives.

It’s not science at all — it’s political persuasion. Or what they used to call Propaganda.

The goal of More Than Scientists is to help the public get to know the scientists and hear in their own words that climate change is real and they’re concerned about it. There’s so much misinformation spread about climate science that we felt it would be really helpful to hear more directly from the scientists themselves.

I predict they're about to make things worse for themselves.

When I took debate class in High School we called it “emotional appeal.”

For nearly thirty years, climate scientists have been the targets of character assassination by the fossil-fuel industry’s hired guns.

The Left loves their victims. It's the meta-narrative: victim, victimizer, hero/champion.

There's an organization called Climate Parents [they have a Facebook page too]. I'm sure they will be touting these videos - probably get them shown in schools.

Two + generations have been fed global climate change fear - Michael Crichton's book "State of Fear" was titled correctly. It is important for these global movement socialists to keep the world in a constant state of fear.

Take away government money (direct and indirect) and see how fast these “scientists” lose their enthusiasm.

Yes.

Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals:

1. “Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have.” Power is derived from 2 main sources – money and people. “Have-Nots” must build power from flesh and blood.

2. “Never go outside the expertise of your people.” It results in confusion, fear and retreat. Feeling secure adds to the backbone of anyone.

3. “Whenever possible, go outside the expertise of the enemy.” Look for ways to increase insecurity, anxiety and uncertainty.

4. “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.” If the rule is that every letter gets a reply, send 30,000 letters. You can kill them with this because no one can possibly obey all of their own rules.

5. “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.” There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions.

6. “A good tactic is one your people enjoy.” They’ll keep doing it without urging and come back to do more. They’re doing their thing, and will even suggest better ones.

7. “A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.” Don’t become old news.

8. “Keep the pressure on. Never let up.” Keep trying new things to keep the opposition off balance. As the opposition masters one approach, hit them from the flank with something new.

9. “The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.” Imagination and ego can dream up many more consequences than any activist.

10. “If you push a negative hard enough, it will push through and become a positive.” Violence from the other side can win the public to your side because the public sympathizes with the underdog.

11. “The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.” Never let the enemy score points because you’re caught without a solution to the problem.

12. “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.” Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions

” it’s easy to make your own impression of their sincerity and conviction.”

I only care about the data.

“The scientific method has been shoved out the door - “modeling” has replaced science.”

I agree entirely. Should we trust the development of new medications without ever doing a clinical trial? Should we just test the effects of new drugs in computerized models - then have the FDA approve them? There’s no way we would do this, because the complexity of human biology is such that we aren’t even close to being able to ‘model’ it accurately. The same criticisms should apply to climate modeling.

Pathetic.

Galileo would be kissing the Pope’s feet about now.

Nowadays it’s more like “appeal to authority.”

Assassination! Mugged!

They are even over the top alarmists when describing themselves.

They need treatment

In related but unreported news, it has now been 3437 days (9.41 years) since the last major (Category 3 or higher) hurricane has made landfall in the United States. This shatters the old record of 2231 days (6.11 years) set 19 Oct 1906.

Since Global Warming predicts that hurricanes will hit with greater frequency and greater force, this record breaking calm spell is yet another proof of Global Warming.
