I know someone working in a pharmaceutical lab that believed climate change was fake because the atmosphere on Mars was mostly CO2 and it wasn't hot there.

God save us from the kakistocracy.

You'd be surprised how conspiratorial scientists are - especially if it's outside their domain.

You'd think more deference to experts would be the default mode.... just because I took one physics class does not make me an expert on climatology or the green house effect
