Climate change is real... let me show you...

At a glance, one can easily spot worlds of differences between the two websites. “Friend of Science” claims man-made global warming does not exist. If offers many graphics and many charts, but largely fails to explain them. Also, under its “About Us” section, it offers no names. Rather it simply defines the organization as a group of retired and active earth and atmospheric scientists. Its identity cannot easily be discerned. You have to dig several pages deep before finding names of the men and women who wrote reports.

On the other hand, “How to Talk to a Climate Skeptic” gives a much wider, informed and in depth view, giving us access to a much larger amount of evidence. While the other site simply redirects us to sympathetic yet well-made blogs, its documents cannot compare with the scientific credentials of the organizations backing Coby Beck. NASA and the Climate Research Unit are just a few of the government-sponsored groups that are working to give us a clear picture. These organs have held accountable; they are the best-funded and most professional scientific organization in the world. NASA alone has a fleet of satellites at its disposal. Also, it offers counters to every conceivable argument of those who question climate change.
