There is not a “decent amount of confidence” and your CNN link provides no proof that there’s any at all outside of a sentence claiming tree rings and coral mean it may be. There is so much disinformation (from both sides) and fear mongering about this subject that anything not a direct and peer reviewed source should not be taken as any kind of proof of anything.


To portray this as a "both sides" problem is to wildly misunderstand the scientific discourse, or mistake it for the political one.


The american right desperately want this to be a political fight so they can continue to ignore and profit from it for another few decades while they all die off and not have to worry about the consequences


Nice projection, you’re just spitting word for word political nonsense which is unrelated to a single thing I said. CNN saying that there is proof this is the hottest day in 120,000 years isn’t scientific and linking to them doing so isn’t an act of engaging in science. I think maybe it’s you who has gotten so caught up in a political fight you’re convinced you aren’t taking part it one.


I just said that a vague CNN article isn’t scientific proof of anything. Who’s mixing up science and politics again?
