I’ll trust the experts

Todd Horner (Climate “sources,” Letters, Dec. 10) states that “government sources” on climate change are unreliable (although he doesn’t state why or who is saying so). Nor does he say to which government sources he is referring.

The government sources that I am aware of are the reports issued by national, scientific organizations based on the results of many, many studies supported by the vast majority of environmental scientists, and which report that climate warming is majorly man-made and a serious threat to the world. Mr. Horner states that his “sources” are more reliable because they have actual data and documents. However he doesn’t state what those sources are or what data and documents support are included!

The only other climate change sources that I am aware of (besides those from the government) are those issued by the “non-scientists” in the White House who claim that climate change is a hoax. I prefer to rely on reports from scientists than those from unnamed, unscientific, politically-driven sources.
