If someone tries to intimidate you into opposing fossil fuels by saying “97% of climate scientists agree,” trying asking them: 1. What exactly do they agree about—do they agree there’s a “climate crisis”? 2. Do you agree we should also factor in the benefits of fossil fuels? — PolitiTweet.org

Summary: Using “97% of climate scientists agree that climate change is real and human-caused” to argue against fossil fuels is illogical and unscientific. It: 1. Falsely equates *some* climate impact with *catastrophic* climate impact 2. Ignores the huge benefits of fossil fuels — PolitiTweet.org
