Interesting study on #ClimateChange, extreme weather events, and ideology.

It seems rapid attributions are a good idea, then.

“This study highlights the importance of advocating climate change policies after extreme weather events, especially among right-leaning individuals in the United States.”

(hint: it’s not an open access article but authors typically email you a pdf of the paper on request)

Today, I learned the useful expression "Galileo gambit." We encounter it all the time when it comes to climate science.

"The argument runs thus: Galileo was ridiculed in his time for his scientific observations, but was later acknowledged to be right; the proponent argues that since their non-mainstream views are provoking ridicule and rejection from other scientists, they will later be recognized as correct, like Galileo."
