    That’s very true. But I think that stems in part from the fact that some of the most prominent climate science (such as the IPCC report) features the consensus of many scientists. All climate scientists will agree on low estimates that we are very sure of. But there have been some models predicting faster increases of global temperatures than we have seen. If we would look at the average of scientific claims instead of the consensus, we might be more close to the truth.

    Nevertheless, science has been pretty right overall. Of course, not exactly right, but that wouldn’t fit in a meme.
