President Obama's stance, expressed in his 2014 State of the Union address, is that the debate is settled, and climate change is a fact. Obama is by no means unique in that view. Former Vice President Al Gore declared that "the science is settled." This "settled science" vision about climate is held by many, including those in academia. To call any science settled is sheer idiocy.https://climatechangedispatch.com/wp-content/uploads/images_pics8_potus-sotu-2015.jpg
