It is no longer global warming because it isn't.

It is climate change because it does.

Men are never so likely to settle a question rightly as when they discuss it freely.

— Thomas B. Macaulay (1800-1859), Essay on Southey's Colloquies

All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism.

What is a lay person to think?

Experts who make predictions or even look out their window don’t know what they are talking about. This is not good for the reputation of science or the ‘experts’ who claim to know the future. Mother Nature likes to make fools out of these seers. As Bertrand Russell has observed:

The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts

H/T Tom Nelson
