Global warming theory dictates that shouldn't happen.President Obama recently returned from the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Paris and declared, "Today the American people can be proud because this historic agreement is a tribute to American leadership. This agreement represents the best chance we have to save the one planet that we've got." The progressive politicians and intelligentsia have declared human-generated CO2 causation of climate change to be "settled science." They warn that unless governments take radical action to decrease CO2 emissions, the earth and humanity will suffer dire consequences in the centuries to come. Their proclamations on climate change are so unyielding and absolute that they are reflexively and uncritically accepted as irrefutable truth by many. Yet, true science is never settled but rather, by definition, open to modification as new discoveries and data come to light. The scientific method, on which all post-enlightenment scientific understanding rests, has the following essential structure: Firstly, asking a question about the physical world.  Secondly, proposing a hypothesis that answers the question.https://climatechangedispatch.com/wp-content/uploads/images_pics8_antartica.jpg
