I totally understand how devoted some of you are to the climate cause but I find it interesting that you don't see how crazy some of you get about opposing opinions and how far you will go to ridicule people for it. People like to put out statements that they are pointing out flaws or intellectually deficient but the truth is that its mob mentality prevailing here.

As for him using his platform, it's up to his employer to decide what he can or cannot do with it.
You make climate change seem like it is something that is based on opinion. Similar to how one could have an opinion on who would be the best RW for the Flames top line. The difference is that climate change is not really an opinion thing. It is closer to a "water runs downhill thing". Some people may claim that water does not run downhill, but that person does not have an opinion, that person is an idiot.
