From the Globe and Mail's Business Section: (Even)oil executives don't approve of Trump's unfounded attacks on wind energy--- which, of course, is one of the key, albeit several, solutions to climate change.

Today is #BatmanDay ... which also makes it #ClimateBrawlDay ... for the original purpose of #ClimateBrawl was to act as a bat signal for help in dealing with the dishonest, malicious, hateful posts of climate denial.

Global anarchy is emerging across the world.

However, this is not new but has been escalating for the past decade or two.

Early indications of this chaos can be found in the dysfunctional attempts of nations to address the #ClimateCrisis ... with the US especially at fault.

I never discuss science with climate deniers.

Why should I? Climate deniers:

- are NOT presenting science

- deny science

- don't want to learn from science

- just want to argue

- believe that their common sense is superior to science

- believe a blog is sc.

Every contrarian scientist ... scientists who denounce the science of climate change ... have done so with lies, cherry-picked info, and even climate denial.

They are traitors to their profession and mocked by their peers.
