    Episode 75 — Global Warming

    I absolutely adore this Podcast but almost drove my car off the road listening to this episode. Presenting Climate Science as a two-sided issue of opinions was infuriating. We don't present two sides of gravity....or describe people as "believing in it" or "having an opinion" about it. There is NO ONE in the climate science community who questions what is happening....it's not a slanted or biased view or an "opinon"...it is, in fact, based on data and facts. There were so many erroneous statements made by "the guest" it really stunned me. And, to be fair, he is not a climate scientist. It's very misleading to present a guest as some sort of expert when he is not in the field being discussed. It would be a little like taking advice on cancer treatment from your podiatrist because he's a doctor. I would strongly urge you to bring in a CLIMATE SCIENTIST if you are going to do a show on global warming. (I know several, I would be happy to suggest some names!) And as to the question of "vested interests," you will find economic interests only on the denial side....the fossil fuel industry. And the reality is, we all have the same vested interest.....living on this planet and having it be inhabitable for our grandchildren's grandchildren....which seems like our responsibility.
