There are two sides to the story on Climate Change.

On one side we have Slate with an infographic with the caption :

 

How to Win Any Climate Change Argument
A flow chart for debating with denialists”

 

On the other we have a really delicious fisking of the graphic from Wendy McElroy:

“How to Lose a Climate Change Argument”

Her starting comment before she shreds the graphic:

“All I can say is, I pity the fool that tries to use that flowchart on me. Below the break, if this subject doesn't bore you to tears by now, is my fisking of their arguments.

The arguments seem to progress from right to left, so I'll address them in that order.”

Truly delightful.
