Is there a real debate about climate change?
Climate change deniers allege it’s not man-made and not a problem, and say there’s a scientific debate. In fact, there’s no real debate.

The other 2% are often crazy or making money from their discord via funding by the oil industry or book sales to highly ideological people.
