So my son-in-law who is a soil scientist is ignorant, as well as his father who taught soil science for decades. So my other son-in-law who has a degree in agriculture is ignorant. So my cousins who are farmers and also have degrees in agriculture are ignorant? They came to these conclusions independently on their own. Your denigration of the people on the front lines as opposed to those in their ivory towers is remarkable. I started out with some people who _are_ "on the front lines". https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-45715550 Those unfortunate people in Bangladesh, of course, aren't qualified to say if they're just suffering from the effects of some random bad weather or something that is really connected with climate change. I do not really know why people with degrees in agriculture or soil science would be inclined to dispute the conclusions of people with degrees in climate science about climate. It could be they live in a part of the country where all the newspapers reinforce a certain outlook on life, so that people of all educational levels are dismissive of notions they associate with people living in New York or Hollywood... never mind Boston. I live in Alberta, where selling oil is as important to our economy as it is to that of Texas, so I can certainly understand how that sort of thing can happen. Perceived economic self-interest can affect objectivity. John Savard |
