No need for matter of fact language[edit]

Not only is anthropogenic climate change not a fact, it is not necessary to state it as one. In this case, a simple addition of “Climate scientists believe” or “It is thought” or “Increased co2 levels suggest” to the below listed entry solves the issue. This is not a debate or discussion about Climate Change, just the terms used when stating it. I would prefer someone edit it who worked on the article. Thank you. David

Under the CLIMATE CHANGE section;

“Human activity has caused an increase in greenhouse gases creating a global warming trend,[58] causing these valuable glaciers to melt.” WaveGuidedFunction (talk) 14:37, 20 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry but, anthropogenic climate change has been quite well established as "fact" by the scientists working in the field. Yes, the oil company execs and their buddies are in denial about it - because they might lose a buck or two and $$$ is all they care about. Cheers, Vsmith (talk) 19:18, 20 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
