No. He can have an opinion. But his site, and his organization, is not neutral. At all.

So I wrote his site is a lie factory, and that annoys you. Sorry for annoying you. But I only want to make clear there's no truth on that site.

He claims CO2 is downright good for plants, basing that claim on statistics and 'thousands of studies'.
But crop statistics say nothing about the effect of CO2 on plants, due to the other factors at work, and field studies and lab tests show the relation is actually mixed and troublesome.
So his claim isn't based on anything.

And I'm not a 'believer'. That's your wording. I formed my opinion on data.

And it's not a cult. Not if 97% of scientists agree about something. Mind when a scientists isn't sure, (s)he would not likely form a strong opinion about it. So if 97% commit to a view, that is something.

I would never suggest everything YOU post is a lie. But frankly, these last postings were below your level.
