Scientists should listen to engineers more, like Ohio, particularly about these matters of climate change. Many engineers I know disagree with global warming. It's not because they are against science or are stupid, but because they see things differently. Somehow engineers are not blinded by cognitive bias because they are trained to be pragmatic. Remember, engineers make stuff, not scientists. Through experience, engineers have a better idea of how the world works than scientists in some lab looking into a petri dish.
Yes, and scientists have fully convinced the Pentagon, so much so that climate change is part of their threat assessments and is taken as a given. For the political leaders to sit in briefings where they are listening to how the Pentagon is going to respond to this change and how it is going to affect US vital interests, and then in public poo poo this as fake news is an excellent example of the two faced politicians that Jesus rebuked when He rebuked the hypocrites.
