The good thing about science is you get to have opposing opinions. Given that there were over 10,000 delegates, a quick calculation suggests that something like 6.5% of the attendees had an opposing opinion. Excellent consensus!

If you headline had said "93.5% of conference attendees agree" I guess it wouldn't have had the same impact. The author won't win any journalism awards.

Not really wanting to get into a debate about the various scientific conclusions quoted above, I do have a question as to why this is a right vs left debate. I know that the writer of the article won an award for "Muckraker of the Day" but still, the continual references to leftists, lefties, and the left gets a bit tiring.

I will say that there is lots of nonsense out there on the subject of climate change, on both sides. I just don't see how this article helps improve that situation. Given the history of Deroy Murdock, maybe I shouldn't be surprised.
