Interesting, what is the mass of the earth again? I forgot. Also how was that calculated? Science is so full of things that are just rock solid. Before you call me a flat earther. I do not think the earth is flat I just think that the experiment to determine its mass was bullshit. Science is victim to politics just like everything else.

The mass of the earth isn't a big issue for me, but if you have a bee in your bonnet about it, throw me a link.
Of course science is full of things that aren't rock solid, everything has an uncertainty associated with it and we are learning new stuff all the time. If you look into climate science you'll find approximations and plenty of . Nonetheless, we have no other way of reproducing the earth's observed warming and .
Was Newton's theory of gravity disproven by Einstein's general relativity? If you want to know the important bits about what happens when you jump of a cliff, it doesn't matter if you use the crude theory.
You can pray for some miracle that completely disproves anthropogenic global warming, but after more than 30 years, the chances of it happening really are minute. Expect the theory to be continually refined, and corporate shills to attempt to frame that refinement as 'error and incompetence' to the uneducated, when it's clear that there is no competing theory.
Well I would say its intellectually to say there are no competing theories. There are tons of competing theories just not ones that have had that much amount of money thrown at. Its like the insistence before a few years ago that dinosaur bones could not contain soft tissue, until we started looking and many of them do, an accepted scientific impossibility but then one day turns out it was wrong and we don't know why. So people come up with new theories to explain.
Science does not ever claim something is fact until it is proven fact, 97% is not 100% and proving something that complex as fact would be scientifically speaking very difficult, this is why you have people not denying the earth is warming but denying human beings are the reason.
It's just semantics: I can pull several 'competing theories' out of my ass right now, they might not be very convincing, or take long to disprove.

It's been several decades: the corporations who wish to ignore anthropogenic global warming do not lack financial resources (money is NO problem), but all they can do is nitpick about minor details and try to play on conspiracy theories. If there was a real contending theory to global warming caused by human greenhouse gasses - you would know about it, and it would be intensively studied. They've got nothing.
Again, you can pray for a miracle, that something will come up that completely turns the science on its head, but don't hold your breath.
As I mentioned before, do some reading on other scientific theories like quantum mechanics or relativity: That shit is infinitely crazier than humans warming the earth and nobody gives a shit, because the implications don't clash with corporate profits.
