Climate Facts - Introduction
In the ongoing debate about climate change, there is a growing need for a balanced approach that separates scientific inquiry from political agendas. This essay argues that climate science should be less political, and climate policies should be more scientific. Scientists should openly address uncertainties and exaggerations in their predictions of global warming, while politicians should dispassionately count the real costs as well as the imagined benefits of their policy measures.Â
