Climate Myth Debunked: There’s no consensus among scientists that climate change is real

In the age of disinformation, there are various climate change myths being pushed, often by special interests to sow confusion and doubt about the clear-cut science behind human-caused climate change. WFLA's Chief Meteorologist and Climate Specialist Jeff Berardelli tackles the five common myths in this week's Climate Classroom.

We’re in solar cycle number 25. We are six years into the 11 year cycle of the hottest point in our planets, history and 11 years every 11 years heats up every 11 years it cools off so yes our planet is in the hotspot. Yes, the climate is changing, but it has been for billions of years

If I were a climatologist employed by ANY academic institution in the west and yet boldly published research against the status quo, I WOULD LOSE MY JOB AND BE OUSTED! Of course they all agree with each other. Follow the money 💰

The title is misleading and seems as if it were a video of a news channel about to put it's flag in the ground for idiocy. Glad that it is debunking "the no consensus not "absolute consensus" being the myth they are "debunking". anyway. English is a peculiar beast. Been speaking it for all my life and that one got me. haha

Even the petroleum industry knows it's real. They've been discussing it for many decades. Unfortunately, the strategy the decided on was to not share that data, even though it was from their own scientists, but to bury it. It was just too damaging to them economically. Now we know, and the issue is how to address it. We can't cut fossil fuels completely at this juncture for many reasons, but we can increase the use of renewables, and make sure our approach to fossil fuels is as safe and minimally damaging as possible.

Isn't climate always changing? Why don't they include the ice core data for true historical data which shows that the earth is colder now not warmer

Everyone agrees the climate is changing but disagrees on how much, somehow you missed the entire topic of debate during your coverage
