I know someone working in a pharmaceutical lab that believed climate change was fake because the atmosphere on Mars was mostly CO2 and it wasn’t hot there.
You’d be surprised how conspiratorial scientists are - especially if it’s outside their domain.
You’d think more deference to experts would be the default mode… just because I took one physics class does not make me an expert on climatology or the green house effect
13% = ~4.2mill Americans think it’s fake and it is highly likely everyone reading this thread has met someone who believes it’s fake.
I swear to christ our #1 export in the US is tinfoil hats.

Couldnt he percentage just be false?
Also, where did you get the 4.2 million US citizens from? Im pretty sure 13% is much higher
I’m an idiot. I put it as .013 because my brain clocked it at a far more reasonable rate.
It’s actually 42,900,000 which is way worse 🫠
Iirc that’s also the percentage of Americans who are functionally illiterateLooked it up, it’s worse.
I think it doesn’t actually matter whether it happened, but whether the technology to do it existed at that time. And they surely did.
To build on this: The technology to fake it didn’t exist back then.
