Ocean water is pushing miles beneath Antarctica’s “Doomsday Glacier” on a daily basis making it more vulnerable to melting than previously thought, according to new research, which used radar data from space to perform an X-ray of the crucial glacier.
Not entirely true in my anecdotal experience. Most of the original deniers I know personally now say that climate change is real, just that it’s not man-made and there’s nothing we can do about it. I remember around a few years ago I even convinced my boss that climate change is in fact real (he couldn’t come up with a valid reason to explain picture and video evidence), but he refuses to accept humans are causing it. It’s still equally frustrating, nonetheless.
I mean, is that functionally any different? They’re still going with their own “alternate facts” over listening to scientists. They’re still refusing to support politicians and/or policies that might give us a shot at avoiding the worst of the problem. If they’re still doing all the same shit then nothing has changed.
Right, I was just pointing out that there are plenty who do believe in climate change, but are still missing/refusing to see the underlying cause and support reform.
I have a friend that claims climate change is not man made. He always talks about volcanos and ice ages. Does anyone know what evidence I can actually hand him to show him man’s contribution is the leading cause?

Wow. The ‘Current Path’ was very optimistic. We are accelerating roughly twice as fast as was predicted here in 2016.
