Futurism reports that Neil deGrasse Tyson has criticized politicians and the media for “cherry-picking” scientific studies on climate change that downplay human involvement. It suggests that in the wake of recent hurricanes, the astrophysicist described this behavior as “irresponsible.”

The article seemed light on evidence to justify their claim. So I ran a quick search on Google Scholar for ‘climate change‘ and found thousands of articles.  As an after-thought, I ran a search on Google Scholar  for ‘Neil deGrasse Tyson’ and ‘climate change’. 

Personally, I struggled to fins any publications by Mr. Tyson on climate change.

Surely it’s not about cherry-picking the evidence, rather summarizing and analyzing it? Perhaps, next time Futurism could look for evidence?

Thoughts?
