Some interesting numbers in the CSIRO report.

Of the people who believe that climate change is happening but naturally caused believe that 46.7% of climate change is caused by human activity.

Even the group who say it isn't happening claim that about 34.6% of climate change is caused by humans ?

The people who don't know blame human activity for 57.2% of climate change.

Andrew is claiming most of these people are on his side ?

Imagine your life if you understood the things you read! a MAJORITY of people do not support human caused climate change.

Get over it.

You may not be in the list of the last 10 people in the world that I would listen to on the topic of comprehension but you may well be a reserve for anyone on the list.

You are free to make a fact- based rebuttal, but to date you have deliberately (yes deliberately) misinterpreted the Bolt article for reasons that are your own (but fairly obvious just the same). He is right. You are wrong. And you might add that no one of not is questioning his figures or interpretation. Just you. NOT someone of note.

How is highlighting what the report says misinterpreting the bolt article ?

Most of my comments relate to what is actually in the report and not anything that Bolt has said.

Quotes are not proof. You can quote any report selectively to come up with almost any message you want. It is when you use the correct context and background that you can make powerful claims. Bolts point - and proven - was that a slight majority now reject ACC. Make of that what you want, but you don't get to dispute it since it is the actual facts.

They can deny Bolt because they don't like Bolt, or they don't like the clothes he wears, or they don't like the cologne he uses, or even because what he says is inconvenient to their 'religious cause', but in the end they can't alter what Bolt said, because what he said is factually true.
