Now tell me why every Joe nobody, science wanna-be, lobby group and general arse hat should be given a voice when they can not come close to those standards?
You want all the models and data and conclusions released by the smartest people on the planet. I agree, they should be. However we cant spend the rest of our days arguing with the mindless masses over these issues. Most people can not come close to understanding the science, have nowhere near the resources required to replicate the tests/data or even communicate effectively on the topic.
Having millions of uneducated and ill informed people constantly question a very few people again and again and again with the same garbage questions is pointless. The masses will never be happy with any answer that implies they have to change their lifestyles. They will question the science and credibility of the scientists endlessly until they are convinced they don't need to change and can ignore the topic to meet their own interests.
Climatologists should have to meet the highest possible standards. I agree. So should every doubter. I don't want to hear a single counter argument from anyone who is not a PhD in Statistics, or other person that meets the standards of "Preferably with decades of experience and unquestionable standing".
Want to refute the evidence with your lobby group? Excellent. I want all your corporate data made available to the public. All your models and software and results open for review. No trade secrets. No commercial in confidence bullshit. You gather the smartest people on the planet and you share your findings openly.
Are you an individual and want to refute the evidence or contribute? Well unless you are a world renowned scientists with relevant skills in the right areas I sincerly suggest you keep your uninformed pie hole shut. You are nothing but a bleating sheep that is creating an unnecissary distraction from the work that needs to be done and contribute nothing to the solution.
I completely agree with your need to be free of government intervention. If you choose to willfully and against all advice destroy your hearing then you should be allowed to do so.
Now, can you please agree to prevent your interventionist government from taking my income to provide you with medical aid to repair this damage? Because I fail to see why I should be taxed to provide medical care to morons?
Why is it that everyone is against government intervention except when that intervention is on their behalf?
Oh yeah, I'm also fed up with hearing the garbage sounds leaking out of your headphones on public transport. Yes, I'm old and I'm grumpy so get off my lawn.

I actually agree with this approach.
