> Scientists develop sophisticated models that show the dangers of global warming

Scientists treat their jobs as sinecure, benefit from unpublished data and closed-source code while receiving public funding

Nothing to see here, people, get that Believe Science t-shirt and move on.

> The catastrophic consequences are now being felt on a regular basis "Okay, it's definitely time for gradual, market-based solutions to global warming."

I guess you disagree with economists who won the most prestigious award in their field and who also build sophisticated models? Pick your own dismal science to root for! Being a science believer have never been so exciting, now you can treat it like football or politics!




By calling econ "dismal science", adherents exaggerate;

The "dismal's" fine, it's "science" where they patently prevaricate.

;)


Right? If economics isn’t even a science, what does it make climatology?
