Comment on Over 1,600 Scientists and Professionals Sign ‘No Climate Emergency’ Declaration

CLINTEL was founded by an engineer from Shell and a journalist. They want to be a watchdog for climate science but they’ve already publicly made up their minds that climate change is not a problem.

The supposed-scientists who signed it did so using a form on their website. CLINTEL reviews signatures but does not reach out to vet the signers.

Another fun fact: The last time they asked people to sign this declaration, it was found that only 10 of the 500 signatures claimed to be climate scientists

Conclusion: I could not give less of a fuck about the climate opinions of an organization with ties to the oil/gas industry. It’s about as credible as the UAE saying they’re pushing for green energy
