Many people these days simply put blames on certain heavy industries, scientists or researchers over climate change or global warming without any scientific proofs. Thanks to the Australian solar physicist John Cook of Skeptical Science, who has created a little nifty iPhone app that lets you stay more aware of what claims or arguments on climate change are right or wrong. And it also includes scientific counterarguments to those misinformed climate skeptic arguments.
Once the Skeptical Science iPhone app launches on your iPhone screen, it shows you 10 of the most common misinformed climate skeptic arguments as well as showing the scientific counterarguments to them. The arguments are also categorized into three main categories, which are “It’s not happening“, “It’s not us“, and “It’s not bad”, to help you find more claims and the scientific counterarguments more easily.
The iPhone app has included 90 climate skeptic arguments so far and each comes with the scientific response. The app also shows you with graphs and links to scientific papers or other related sources. It also has a feature that allows you to report any skeptic argument that you’ve just encountered.
The Skeptical Science iPhone app can be downloaded from iTunes and it runs on your most ubiquitous gadget iPhone or iPod Touch. So, while you’re on the run, and hear of any climate skeptic arguments, you can easily find the scientific responses on this iPhone app and prove to them whether they’re right or wrong.
