Do You Believe In Global Warming?

چکیده
Very often, when I talk to the public or the media about “global warming”, they ask me if I believe in global warming. This unfortunate question is apparently very popular among scientists as well. And I say ‘unfortunate’ because when we are dealing with a scientific problem ‘believing’ has no place. In science we either ‘prove’ or ‘disprove’. We ‘believe’ only when we cannot possibly prove a truth. For example, we may ‘believe’ in reincarnation or afterlife but we cannot prove either.
