media and in policy discussions
about Climate Change/Global Warming is the
following statement: "There is a
scientific consensus, no more discussion is
needed since the Climate Science is
settled". Is this a scientific statement in itself?
Why or why not? Make a succinct,
but convincing argument! Note: I am not asking if
you agree or not with the
statement, the question is not about your personal
views or preferences about it,
those are irrelevant for the question asked.
Need detail and step by step answer (only typed answer not handwritten please)
