Now that I have taken you to the woodshed, you are reduced to ad hominem of insinuating I am unqualified to discuss climate science.
I entered the discussion in response to your post. By your own metric, you were unqualified to start things off with your catastrophic pronouncements about apple trees.
Engaging in logical fallacies, such as ad hominem, is a departure from scientific discussion and an embrace of sophistry.
lol
it wasnt meant as an insult. maybe some insecurity there on your part?
you may have taken physiology and biology in school, but if i explained that you may not be qualified to diagnose someone with bell's palsy....would that be an ad hominem insult? no, it would just be the truth, intelligent and educated as you may be. it isnt your field.
for the 3rd time.....i was explaining to that poster about why people are fearful of climate change. its not because people fear theyre going to burn alive, or have or have to live underground. its because of very plausible effects on plants and animals that we rely on to live. along with the potential impacts of sea level rise.
