Why is there a new thread on climate change so often, and why is it packed with stupid assholes who think that they can just post a goddamn Youtube video and suddenly they're a fucking expert
Like this cunt:
>>890145Anyway the chances any of you who are skeptics would actually read an entire IPCC Working Group report is incredibly unlikely, so I'll point out the major historical publications and recent studies that are relevant to establishing the anthropogenic cause of climate change. I know you won't read those either, but it's just to demonstrate the concreteness and convergence of all the evidence.
For a general historical overview, I encourage you to read Spencer Weart's book, The Discovery of Global Warming. If you're good at the whole math and physics thing, then Pierrehumbert's Principles of Planetary Climate is the standard text, or David Archer's Global Warming: Understanding the Forecast for something shorter for undergrads, and with excellent supplementary material.
