While the "argument from popularity" (I don't know if that's the proper name for this fallacy) is a nice talking point, it's not even true in the case of climate change. What I see is a bunch of non-scientists jumping up and down and screaming, and they hate it when actual climate scientists say something like "now hold on a minute, the situation is a bit more complex than that." I go into more of that in one of my opinion pieces, and the gist is that the expert opinions are being drowned out by alarmists and secular doomsday prophets, many of whom are young women who are experts at nothing but getting attention. I don't think there is a scientific consensus when it comes to climate change, to be honest. Besides, how is a freaky-eyed Swedish teen-ager screaming at fellow westerners going to fix what's going on in China? This isn't about the climate, it's about the Ethical State, the "character" of western nations, or more precisely, the virtue signalling of those with the loudest voices.
