#AmyConeyBarrett: “Climate change is a very contentious matter of public debate.”

Science: Actually, climate change is just scientific fact. That greenhouse gases lead to warming has been well understood by even fossil fuel corporations since the 1970s.

If #AmyConeyBarrett is unable to understand and acknowledge basic scientific facts — like that climate change is happening — then she is clearly unqualified to to make decisions based on evidence, and therefore unqualified to be a judge at any level of government.
Of note: In 1856, Eunice Newton Foote discovered that carbon dioxide would lead to global warming. EIGHTEEN FIFTY SIX. This is very old news, Barrett. #WomenInSTEM

p.s. I do wish @kamalaharris hadn’t framed her question as whether Barrett “believed” in climate change — it’s not Santa Claus or the tooth fairy! 🧚🏽‍♀️🎅🏽
