Not my usual topic, but here’s a pattern I’ve noticed:
How to talk like a climate denialist:
1. Start with a myth, e.g., "humans emit only a small % of CO2" or "scientists don't agree."
2. When debunked, dismiss scientific consensus as bogus.
3. Next, claim the scientific method is flawed.
4. Fall back on "common sense" or "practical wisdom".
5. Finally, invoke conspiracies about free speech, bribed scientists, or hidden agendas.
