Causation Of Climate Change, And The Scientific Method
January 02, 2021/ Francis Menton
Let’s have yet another go at trying to apply the scientific method to the subject of causation of climate change. This is just basic logic, and not that complicated. We can do it.
As simple and basic as this is, you will shortly see that the agglomeration of all of the world’s leading “climate scientists†can’t figure it out. They are completely lost and befuddled. Check me and see if I’m wrong.
The proposition we are addressing is the one for which you see a constant drumbeat of advocacy. It runs something like, “the climate is changing, and we are the cause.†OK, nobody denies that the climate is changing; but how about the “we are the cause†part? What is the proof?
Let’s apply the scientific method. We start with the basic maxim that “correlation does not prove causation.†Instead, causation is established by disproof of all relevant alternative (“nullâ€) hypotheses.
