Logical fallacies 2/2
A common logical fallacy in climate change debates is the appeal to nature, where opponents argue that because the climate has changed naturally in the past, current changes must also be natural. This ignores the overwhelming evidence that recent changes are driven by human activities, particularly the burning of fossil fuels. Another example is the false dichotomy often presented between economic growth and environmental protection, suggesting that actions to mitigate climate change will necessarily harm the economy, despite evidence that sustainable practices can lead to economic benefits.
