Climate DENIAL is far more than just against the science of climate change; it is also against: - the truth - honesty - ethics & morals - decency - facts & evidence ... The list goes on, but I think that you get the picture. Climate DENIAL is a lost cause. #ClimateBrawl

A principal tactic of extreme climate denial & related trolls is: "Gish Gallop" - a rapid series of posts of lies & other disinformation to overwhelm with quantity w/o quality. The intent is to IMPLY that a debate exists even though the science has been accepted. #ClimateBrawl
