Thousands of scientists have taken part in demonstrations around the world in protest against what they see as a global political assault on facts.

The first-ever March for Science, which was timed to coincide with Earth Day, was aimed at promoting action to protect the environment.

Organisers said it was a celebration of science and a call to support and safeguard the scientific community.

Follow the money.
The money is overwhelmingly being spent by industry to suppress science. It's not close. Oil companies alone spend much more on lobbying and marketing than is spent on environmental research, even before Trump's deep cuts.

I don't need to rebutt you. There is nothing to rebutt.


AGW is a scam for power and control. Nothing more.

That's contrary to evidence and not logically supported.

The irony of this protest is priceless.
