    If I and my advisors had never learned what Science is or how & why it works, then I’d consider pulling out of the Paris Climate Accord too.

        Understanding science shouldn't be a pre-requisite for caring about our planet.

        Respect for scientists does not require an understanding of science.

        Absolutely agreed. I'd argue respect for science as a whole is more important than respect for scientists, though.

        Respectfully: Scientists literally embody science.

        An individual scientist is a human who can be both biased and flawed. The process that rewards removing bias and flaws is more important

        #Trump has considered pulling out of the Paris Climate Accord not due to his ignorance of science insomuch as because he's an asshole.

        Here's my prediction. He puts out that he might quit Paris Accord only to say he decided to stay so then he gets PRAISED for it

        A person can change their gender-- not sex-- by wanting. But hey, they can change their sex through surgery. So I fail to see your point!

        The two seem to go hand in hand these days, along with an astounding lack of empathy.

        That's just the Spanish word for moon. It's not a name.
