I actually believe that climate change is being discredited because of the mob mentality of those who don't understand the science behind it other than what's being fed to them by certain political think tanks.

These are really long reads (and there's more if you want), but they help make clear how we've come to this point where the extensive research and science behind climate change is real, and yet the public perception of it is so divided, especially among conservatives who deny it so much more fervently.

Another great read that I always recommed (updated yearly I believe) is the Earth Policy Reader.

Actually that was a proper use of the word.

In fact it was pretty much spot on.

JBBP's perspective comes from his science friend who sails boats and slacks off... Or something like that.

There's a thing called peer review that ensures that all published work/grant proposals are correct, ethical and legal. Plenty of scientist don't get federal funding for a variety of reasons.

Scientist work on theories, not preconceived, orchestrated notions. They may have theories about what they think is going on, but they don't assume that is correct until they do they experiments and see what the data tells them. Sometimes you're right, sometimes you're wrong. There's plenty of controversy in science, people publish things others don't agree with all the time.

Climate's changing JBBP, the average scientist doesn't give a dicks shake about politics. Didn't a repub prez nominee come out and acknowledge man made climate change? Uh oh.
:nod:

Decisiveness is a conk virtue while open mindedness is a donk virtue. Deciveness gets rewarded in the business world, but not so much in science. I think it basically boils down to black and white world view versus gray. Whether or not this equates to left leaning bias is the interesting question, and JMUDJ seems to be making a strong point here.

Actually, you're wrong, dumbass.
This is the exception where "effect' is correct to use as a verb.
For example. "The politician hoped that his candidacy would effect change in the political discourse."

Negative, Opossum, incorrect usage on your part. Your sentence clearly calls for "affect". One would effect integrity, whereas one would affect the integrity. :coffee:

Or to use your example - one would not say the politician hoped his candidacy would effect the change in the political discourse. Either way you are wrong. :coffee:

But that ain't how he used it, piker. :ohno:

One would effect integrity or affect the integrity. Maybe he did it on purpose like his "misspelling" misoyginist "on purpose". :coffee:

The use doesn't hinge on you placing the word 'the" after the verb, guy. Are you really that stupid. You shot your mouth off and you got proved wrong. Go back to G.E.D. class, and keep grasping. You just got Opied.

Sorry Opie, back of the class for you. You should have said "...affect the integrity of the scientific process". The integrity doesn't need to be "effected", it's already there. :coffee:


You tell em back at AGS that you're already somebody's bitch here now and you don't need them anyway.

Replace "effect" with it's verb meaning of "create" and you can see your mistake, opal. :coffee:

Exactly, Opee, it doesn't make sense in your original sentence when used as a verb. That's what I've been schooling you on. If you're going to hang around here, you need to keep up.

"Effect" when used as a verb means "to create". :nod:

Your original sentence: Why is it so hard for you people to believe that there are those out there with ethics and professional responsibility, who would not allow their personal politics to effect the integrity of the scientific process.

Now see how the verb meaning is all wrong? :nod:

If you affect something, there is an effect. Personal politics would affect integrity of the scientific process.

You're my bitch now, Oboe. Now go blow citdog, he gave me some cigarettes.
