Years ago when I taught 8th grade science I assigned climate change as a research topic for my students. A fundamental requirement for their presentations was citing reliable scientific sources.

This link to your rag does not meet the minimal standards I required of my 8th grade students.
Yes, I taught them to follow the links and question the validity of their sources.

Here is a link that includes a series of debunks for such climate change deniers you appear to follow.

If this link does not work go to YOUTUBE and spend a few days watching
potholer54. He teaches people how to question sources and follow scientific facts over politics. (your declared objective?) He also has a LONG playlist debunking climate change denial.

The rag (paper with at best questionable citations) that you linked to presents as it’s primary authoritative citation a Dutch engineer who worked for the Oil and gas industry and as a professor that stepped down mid term in 2001 due to “differences with other board members..”
Sounds like his work in seismic research for a consortium of oil and gas companies was profitable but as the primary source for this article on climate change denial? . . . climatology was not his field of study.

I did find the organization and paper your rag refers to. . . According to [climatefeedback.org]

 In addition to very low scientific content, The analysis also added that, out of the roughly 500 signatories, only 10 self-identified as climate scientists. So much for 1,200 scientists. . . I’m sure they added a few names in the last few years but I can’t find a current list.

As I noted earlier, this article stinks of “100 ND Doctors who support person-hood”. When after checking their names and professions, most were lab technicians and eye care specialists. - yea, like non climate scientists commenting on climate, lab techs are really relevant medical doctors for denying women's reproductive health. . . NOT!

Well all you fucker have 4 years at the most....you best get your shit together because they are taking you either way it's your fucking opinion
Not mine

Your source is known to be a right wing opinion and propaganda site, not an actual factual news site.

What a load of BS.

This reminds me of a few years back when I wrote a "letter to the editor" to our local paper where I shared my story of talking with a much respected general practitioner (family medical doctor) about the ramifications of Margaret Sitte's Measure 1. (the general populous vote was about a month out).

When I asked the doctor what he thought about Sitte's Measure 1 (Margarete copied and pasted the definition of Personhood to construct her measure) he told me it was terrible. He and another medical Doctor had hired a lawyer in Grand Forks to evaluate the measure and based on the lawyers interpretation of the measure, if a woman with an ectopic pregnancy were to present in his office, all he could do is advise her to get her affairs in order because (under the law Sitte was trying to push) the doctor could not provide service so the pregnant woman was going to die. - - I included a list of other horrible ramifications about personhood from other sources. The Tribune did not want to publish my letter. They called me and tried to talk me out of submitting but after two weeks they changed my title, and published it. Online my letter to the editor became rather popular and two days later the paper published a full page list (add) of 100 DOCTORS in ND who were in favor of Measure #1 "personhood"

Took me many hours but I went through every name on the list and background searched every "doctor". If memory serves, I found 3 doctors were in the field of reproductive health. There were a few (one to three?) family doctors but the vast majority of the "doctors" were eye care specialist or lab technicians. I could find no information for two of the names on the list.

This. " . . almost 1200 of the world’s leading scientists" has the same stink as the 100 DOCTORS in ND.

I don't believe a word of it for the following reason:

Analysis / Bias

Slay News is a conservative news and opinion website that frequently promotes misinformation and false claims, especially as it relates to Covid-19 vaccines and WEF conspiracies (see failed fact checks).

The website does not produce original journalism but rather summarizes, adds commentary, or plagiarizes other’s news content without attribution. Further, their editorial standards page is copied directly from The Blaze website. Articles and headlines contain strongly emotional wording such as this ‘Climate Czar’ John Kerry Caught Lying about Private Jet Use during House Hearing and Nobel Prize-Winning Scientist: ‘Climate Crisis’ Narrative Is a Hoax.

Editorially, all stories favor the conservative right and often promote conspiracy theories and pseudoscience. For example, they frequently promote anti-vaccine propaganda, such as this ‘Vaccination Expert’ Dr Alfredo Victoria Dies Suddenly at 42 after Promoting Shots on TV. There is no evidence to indicate the MD died from the vaccine. Further, the source of this information is the anti-vaccine outlet DiedSuddenly. Finally, Slay News strongly supports former President Trump and repeats his stolen election claims like this Dinesh D’Souza Challenges Bill Barr to Debate over Election Fraud Claims in ‘2000 Mules’. They also consistently denigrate Democrats, such as this Obama’s WH Doctor Warns Biden’s Mental Decline ‘Brings Us Closer’ to WW3. In general, Slay News is a far-right biased news source that routinely promotes disinformation for purposes that are unknown.
Failed Fact Checks

“those who have been fully vaccinated for COVID-19 with mRNA shots will lose 25 years of their life.” – Incorrect
“Zero Amish children diagnosed with cancer, diabetes or autism.” – Pants on Fire

Skeptical Science has a great APP to answer the climate change deniers. You can type in the climate change deniers nonsense and get the scientific rebuttal or answer, see below.

Explaining climate change science & rebutting global warming misinformation

Global warming is real and human-caused. It is leading to large-scale climate change. Under the guise of climate "skepticism", the public is bombarded with misinformation that casts doubt on the reality of human-caused global warming. This website gets skeptical about global warming "skepticism".

Our mission is simple: debunk climate misinformation by presenting peer-reviewed science and explaining the techniques of science denial, discourses of climate delay, and climate solutions denial.
