What is geoscience?

Geoscience (also called Earth Science) is the study of Earth. Geoscience includes so much more than rocks and volcanoes, it studies the processes that form and shape Earth's surface, the natural resources we use, and how water and ecosystems are interconnected. Geoscience uses tools and techniques from other science fields as well, such as chemistry, physics, biology, and math! Read more...

How do you deny human climate change when the data is unequivocal?

Get rid of the data of course.

No, they're trying to optimize profits. News outlets will still be expected to do weather reports. Tons of jobs will still require weather data. This way, they can sell access to that data through private firms like AccuWeather.

It's business.

Less govt infrastructure and more money paid to private organisations.

Every job cut from government offices is a job created in a private firm.

Truth is anathema to those who profit from misinformation.
