@ZLabe Thanks for your ctd. reporting, Zack! Do you see a chance to relate your findings to the results on https://polarportal.dk/en/greenland/surface-conditions/?

At first glance polarportal data looks like: all good with arctic sea ice, and this indeed was brought up to me in a typical #climatechangedenial discussion. Any help appreciated …

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.

#RoundSparrowFrustration :: #ClimateChangeDenial

World-wide psychological denial of climate change being caused by burning fires all the time really makes you ponder how many other world-wide denial of common ground problems we have. How many people don't think nuclear bombs are real? Germs and virus? People who don't ever realized in their life they are lied to, deception?

#climateChangeDenial Approached by a government weather control nutcase (I wanted to ask about chemtrails and flat earth). They had photocopies of an old newspaper article (which tabloid? I wanted to ask) that was too small to read. On the flip side, parts of the story were reproduced larger so one could — my partner stopped them there and sent them packing.

technically, Republicans control the weather...because they deny climate change, profit from Big Oil lobbying, and shut down any green policies that would help

2. leftist populist response to far-right conservative populism; two wrongs don't make a right
