Discussing Climate Change in Wyoming

I had to laugh when I came across this meme.  Does that woman look like a climate change denier from America’s great plains region, or what?

It’s gratifying to know that the good people of Wyoming object to being lectured on science by a right-wing Republican woman whose college major was business administration.

I’m reminded of a conversation I had with a woman just yesterday who asked me, “Do you believe in climate change?”  I responded as I always do, that climate change is not the object of belief; studying the subject is pursuing a science. One either understands that branch of science or one doesn’t.

One can believe that Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior, or that Lou Gehrig was the greatest baseball player of all time.  One cannot be properly said to believe in organic chemistry or  the germ theory of disease.
