thats not the point. the point is they learn enough about the scientific method, which I did at that level, to have an understanding that the process behind research and plublication would weed out fake or poor science. Sometimes something slips through. But to think that 50+ years of studies across the world by thousands of different researchers in different fields all publishing findings in support of the climate change model is just some agenda or some random theory to be discounted is not something that someone who paid attention in their classes would conclude
But you still need to spend your efforts learning about climate change. It doesn’t just automatically enter your brain. Schools don’t teach climate change.
You clearly spent the time. Not everyone does. Being an engineer doesn’t automatically make you knowledgeable.
Methodology and knowledge are two very different things.
