د اقلیم له بدلون نه انکار
د اقلیم له بدلون نه انکار یا د نړیوالې تودوخې انکار، رد، ګوښه کول یا بې بنسټه شک دی چې د اقلیم د بدلون په اړه له ساینسي ټولنې سره په ټکر کې دی، په شمول د هغه حد چې دا د انسانانو له خوا رامنځته کیږي، په طبیعت او بشري ټولنې باندې د هغې اغېزې او د موافقیت احتمال، د انساني عمل په واسطه د نړۍ تودوخې ته. [۱][۲][۳][۴]
زیات هغه کسان چې د انتروپجنیک نړیوالې تودوخې په اړه د ساینسي اجماع په اړه بې بنسټه شکونه ردوي یا شکمن اقلیمي بدلونونه سم ګڼي، ساینس پوهانو یادونه کړې ده چې دا ناسم بیان دی.[۵][۶][۷][۸]
د اقلیم له بدلون نه انکار، هغه وخت رامنځته کېدی شي، کله چې افراد یا ټولنیزې ډلې ساینس ومني؛ مګر په دې سربېره شرایطو ته په رسېدو کې پاتې راځي یا د دوی منل په عمل کې ژباړي. د ټولنیزو علومو زیاتو مطالعاتو دا درېځونه د انکار، تخفیف او د پروپاګند ډولونو په توګه ارزولي دي.[۹][۱۰][۱۱][۱۲][۱۳]
په اقلیمي ساینس باندې د خلکو باور ته د زیان رسولو کمپاین، د صنعتي، سیاسي او ایډیالوژیکي ګټو له خوا (د انکار ماشین) سازمان په توګه تشرېح شوی او د محافظه کاره رسنیو او شکمنو بلاک ګرانو له خوا ملاتړ شوی، چې د نړیوالې تودوخې په اړه ناڅرګندتیا رامنځته کړي.[۱۴][۱۵][۱۶][۱۴]
د نړیوالې تودوخې سیاست، د اقلیم له بدلون نه انکار او د نړیوالې تودوخې سیاسي شخړې له خوا اغېزمن شوی، چې د اقلیم د بدلون په اړه د عمل کولو هڅې یا د تودوخې اقلیم سره سمون کمزوری کوي. هغه کسان چې انکار ته وده ورکوي، معمولاٌ ً د بیان تاکتیکونه کاروي، ترڅو د ساینسي شخړې بڼه ورکړي، چېرې چې هېڅ شتون نه لري. [۱۷][۱۸][۱۹][۲۰][۲۱]
د اقلیم په ساینس کې د خلکو باور کمزوري کولو لپاره تنظیم شویکمپاین، له محافظه کاره اقتصادي پالیسيو سره تړاو لري او د صنعتي ګټو له خوا د CO2 اخراج تنظیمولو لپاره ملاتړ کېږي.[۲۲]
په متحده ایالاتو کې د اقلیم د بدلون انکار د فوسیل فولس لابي(Fossil Fuels lobby)، کوچ برادرس(Koch brothers) او د صنعت مدافعین او محافظه کاره فکري مخزن (think tanks) سره تړاو لري. د اقلیم بدلون په اړه له ۹۰٪ نه زیات کاغذونه د ښي اړخ فکر کولو مخرن نه سرچینه اخلي.[۲۳][۲۴][۲۵][۲۶][۲۷]
لکه څنګه چې په دې وروستیو کې د ۱۹۷۰ز کال په څېر، د تیلو شرکتونو څېړنې خپرولې ،چې په پراخه توګه د نړیوالې تودوخې په اړه د ساینسي ټولنې نظر سره موافق دي. سره له دې، د تېلو شرکتونو د څو لسیزو راهیسې د عامه ناسمو معلوماتو خپرولو لپاره د اقلیم د بدلون انکار تنظیم کړی. یوه ستراتیژي چې د تنباکو صنعت له خوا د تنباکو څکولو خطرونو تنظیم شوي انکار سره پرتله شوې او ډېری وختونه ان د هغو اشخاصو له خوا ترسره کېږي ،چې مخکې یې د تنباکو صنعت د بندیز پروپاګند خپاراوه.[۲۸][۲۹][۳۰]
اصطلاحات
[سمول]« د اقلیم د بدلون شک» او « د اقلیم د بدلون انکار» د نړیوالې تودوخې د کچې په اړه د ساینسي اجماع انکار، ګوښه کول یا بې بنسټه شک ته اشاره کوي، د هغه اهمیت له انسان سره په بشپړه توګه یا په یوه برخه کې تړاو لري. [۳۱][۳۲]
که څه هم د شک په منځ کې توپیر شته دی، چې د یوې ادعا په حقیقت کې شک او د یوې ادعا د رښتیني انکار څرګندونه کوي. په عامه بحثونو کې «د اقلیم شک» د اقلیم د انکار یا متضاد مفهوم په توګه کارول کېږي.[۳۳][۳۴]
په ۱۹۹۰ز کال کې اصطلاحات راڅرګند شول، که څه هم ټول ساینس پوهان د پروسې د یوې اصلي برخې په توګه ساینسي شک ته غاړه ږدي، خو په ۱۹۹۵ ز کال د نومبر په نیمایي کې د (شک) کلیمه، په ځانګړي توګه کارول کېده چې له ساینسي اجماع سره مخالف نظرونه یې خپاره کړي دي.[۳۵][۳۶][۳۷]
د ساینس پوهانو دې کوچنۍ ډلې، خپل نظرونه د ساینسي ټولنې پر ځای په عامه بیانونو او رسنیو کې وړاندې کړل. دا کار دوام لري. د ۱۹۹۵ز کال په دسمبر کې په یوه مقاله (تودوخه رڼایي ده) کې راغلي: « د نړۍ د اقلیم تودوخه د انکار یو اور روښانه کوي»، راس جیلبسپان(Ross Gelbspan) وویل چې: صنعت د« پر له پسې او ښه تمویل شوي کمپاین» کې د عامه افکارو د مشغولولو لپاره د شک کوونکو یوه کوچنۍ ډله بوخته کړې وه.[۳۸][۳۹][۴۰]
په ۱۹۹۷ ز کال کې، د The Heat is on)) کتاب ممکن لومړنۍ کتاب وي، چې په ځانګړې توګه یې په موضوع (تودوخه) باندې تمرکز کړی دی.[۴۱][۴۲]
په دې کې، جیلبسپان د «انکار او فشار په پر له پسې کمپاین» کې «له نړیوالې تودوخې هراړخیزانکار» په اړه بحث وکړ، چې په کې د « شنو خونو شکمنو» ناڅرګنده تمویل شامل دی، «له اقلیم شک کوونکو» سره چې خلک مغشوش کوي او پریکړه کوونکو باندې اغېزه کوي.[۴۳][۴۴][۴۵][۴۶][۴۷][۴۸][۴۹][۵۰][۵۱]
د ۲۰۰۶ ز کال په نومبر کې CBC تلویزیون مستند فلم د کمپاین په اړه د انکار ماشین نومول شوی و. په ۲۰۰۷ ز کې ژورنالیست شارون بیګلي « د انکار ماشین» په اړه راپور ورکړ، چې یوه جمله یې وروسته د اکاډمیکانو له خوا کارول کېږي.[۵۲][۵۳][۵۴][۵۵][۵۶][۵۷][۵۸][۵۹][۶۰][۶۱]

[سمول]متحده ایالات
[سمول]د اقلیم د بدلون انکار صنعت په متحده ایالاتو کې خورا پیاوړی دي.
په ۲۰۱۶ ز کال کې د متحده ایالاتو په ټاکنو کې د جمهوري ریاست هر نوماند د اقلیم بدلون پوښتنه رد کړه او د متحده ایالاتو مخالفت یې وکړ. د اقلیم بدلون ته د رسېدو لپاره د حکومت ګامونه، لکه څنګه چې په متحده ایالاتو کې د سنا جمهوري غوښتونکي مشریې لري.[۶۲][۶۳][۶۴][۶۵][۶۶][۶۷]
د پنټاګون راپور په ګوته کړې ده چې څنګه د اقلیم بدلون انکار ملي امنیت ګواښي.
په ۲۰۱۵ ز کال کې یوې مطالعې ۴۵۵۶ کسان په ګوته کړل چې له ۱۶۴ سازمانونو سره د شبکې اړیکې لري، چې په متحده ایالاتو کې د اقلیم د بدلون ګواښ کمولو لپاره د ډېرو هڅو مسؤلیت لري.[۶۸][۶۹][۷۰][۷۱][۷۲][۷۳][۷۴][۷۵][۷۶][۷۷][۷۸][۷۹][۸۰][۸۱][۸۲]

[سمول]د کلیکسیټ (Clexit) ایتلاف ادعا کوي: « د یو نوي نړیوال سازمان، کوم چې د پاریس د نړیوالې تودوخې د قیمتي او خطرناک تړون د تصویب مخه نیسي».[۸۳][۸۴]
دا په ۲۶ هېوادونو کې غړي لري. د Guardian ورځپاڼې په وینا: « د کلیکسیټ مشران په پراخه کچه د تنباکو او فوسیل تېلو تمویل شوي سازمانونو کې ښکیل دي».[۸۵]

[سمول]د ۲۰۲۱ ز کال په نومبر کې، له ډیجیټل کرکې سره د مبارزې مرکز(Center for Countering Digital Hate) له خوا یوې مطالعې « لس حاشیوي خپروونکو» په ګوته کړل چې په ګډه د شاوخوا ۷۰ سلنه فیسبوک کاروونکو له منځپانګې سره د اقلیم بدلون ردولو لپاره مسؤل وو.[۸۶][۸۷]
فیسبوک ویلي دي چې: سلنه یې لوړه شوې او مطالعه یې بې لارې کوونکې(ګمراه کوونکې) وبلله.

د نړیوالې تودوخې په اړه دلیلونه او درېځونه
[سمول]د اقلیم د بدلون ځینې انکار کوونکي ډلې وایي چې: Co2 یوازې په اتموسفیر کې ټریس ګاز دی (تقریباٌ ۴۰۰ppm، یا ۰۰۴٪، په هرو ۱۰۰۰۰ برخوکې۴ )، نو دا په اقلیم باندې لږ اغېز لري.
ساینس پوهان له یوې پېړۍ راهیسې پوهېږي چې، ان دا کوچنۍکچه د تودوخې د پام وړ اغېزې لري او د تناسب دوه چنده کول د تودوخې د لوی زیاتوالي لامل کېږي. [۸۸]
ساینسي اجماع، لکه څنګه چې د IPCC څلورم ارزونې راپور، د متحده ایالاتو جیولوژیکي سروې او نورو راپورونو له خوا لنډیز شوی، دا دی چې د انسان فعالیت د اقلیم د بدلون لوی لامل دی.[۸۹]
د فوسیل سون توکو سوځول، هر کال شاوخوا ۳۰ ملیارده ټنه Co2 جوړوي، چې ۱۳۰ ځله دا مقدار د ولکانونو په واسطه تولیدېږي.
ځینې ډلې ادعا کوي چې د اوبو تبخیر د شنو خونو ډېر مهم ګاز دی او د ډېرو اقلیمي ماډلونو څخه پاتې دی.[۹۰]
په داسې حال کې چې د اوبو بخار د شنو خونو ګاز دی، د Co2 په پرتله د اوبو بخار اتموسفیر ژوند شاوخوا ۱۰ ورځې دی؛ په دې معنا چې Co2 د تودوخې د زیاتوالي اصلي عامل دی. د اوبو بخار د غبرګون په توګه کار کوي، نه د جبري میکانیزم په حیث. د اوبو بخارونه د ۱۸۰۰ ز کال په وروستیو کې د اقلیم په ماډلونو کې شامل شوي دي.[۹۱]
د اقلیم انکار ډلې ممکن دا استدلال هم وکړي، چې د نړۍ تودوخې په دې وروستیو کې بندې شوي، د نړیوالې تودوخې ځنډ(وقفه) یا دا چې د نړۍ تودوخه په حقیقت کې کمېږي، چې د نړیوال سړښت سبب ګرځي. دا دلیلونه د لنډ مهاله بدلونونو پر بنسټ ولاړ دي او د تودوخې اوږد مهاله بڼه له پامه غورځوي.[۹۲]
دا ګروپونه ډېری وختونه طبیعي تغییراتو ته اشاره کوي، لکه: د لمر ځایونه، کازمیکې وړانګې او د تودوخې ککړتیا تشرېح کولو لپاره. د دې ډلو په وینا: طبیعي بدلونونه شتون لري چې د وخت په تیریدو سره به کم شي او دا په انسان باندې لږه اغېزه لري. دا فکتورنه د مخه په پام کې نیول شوي دي. کله چې د اقلیم ماډلونه رامنځته شول او ساینسي اجماع دا ده، چې دوی نه شي کولی، د تودوخې لیدل شوې ککړتیا تشېح کړي.[۹۳][۹۴]
په ۲۰۱۸ ز کال د مې په میاشت کې، د ساینس، فضا او ټیکنالوژۍ په اړه د متحده ایالاتو د کور کمېټې په غونډه کې، د الاباما استازي مو بروکس ادعا وکړه چې: د سمندر د سطحې لوړولی د ګلیشیرونو د خړوبولو له امله نه، بلکې د ساحلي تخریب او خټو له امله رامنځته کېږي چې له سیندونو نه سمندر ته تېریږي.[۹۵]
زیاتره ادبیات د اقلیم بدلون ردوي او دا وړاندیز کوي چې، موږ باید د اقلیم بدلون ته له رسیدو نه مخکې غوره ټیکنالوژیو ته انتظار وباسو، ځکه چې دا به ډېره ارزانه او اغېزمنه وي.[۹۶]

Using the language of denialism brings a moralistic tone into the climate change debate that we would do well to avoid. Further, labeling views as denialist has the potential to inappropriately link such views with Holocaust denial ... However, skepticism forms an integral part of the scientific method and thus the term is frequently misapplied in such phrases as "climate change skeptic".

Implicit denial occurs when people who accept the scientific community's consensus on the answers to the central questions of climate change on the intellectual level fail to come to terms with it or to translate their acceptance into action. Such people are in denial, so to speak, about climate change."

These false arguments are used when one has few or no facts to support one's viewpoint against a scientific consensus or against overwhelming evidence to the contrary. They are effective in distracting from actual useful debate using emotionally appealing, but ultimately empty and illogical assertions. Examples of common topics in which denialists employ their tactics include: Creationism/Intelligent Design, Global Warming denialism" and "5 general tactics are used by denialists to sow confusion.

Their opponents, however, often prefer to call such people climate change deniers and to describe their position as climate change denial ... 'Denial' is the term preferred even by many deniers."
- ↑ Washington 2013, p. 2: "Many climate change deniers call themselves climate 'skeptics' ... However, refusing to accept the overwhelming 'preponderance of evidence' is not skepticism, it is denial and should be called by its true name ... The use of the term 'climate skeptic' is a distortion of reality ... Skepticism is healthy in both science and society; denial is not."

Using the language of denialism brings a moralistic tone into the climate change debate that we would do well to avoid. Further, labeling views as denialist has the potential to inappropriately link such views with Holocaust denial ... However, skepticism forms an integral part of the scientific method and thus the term is frequently misapplied in such phrases as "climate change skeptic".

Skepticism plays an essential role in the progress of science ... Yet ... in the context of the climate change denial movement ... the term skeptic has often been co-opted to describe those who simply deny, rather than appraise critically.
- ↑ Jenkins 2015, p. 229: "many who deny the consensus on climate change are not really skeptics but rather contrarians who practice "a kind of one-sided skepticism that entails simply rejecting evidence that challenges one's preconceptions" (Mann 2012:26)"
- ↑ National Center for Science Education 2012: "Recognizing that no terminological choice is entirely unproblematic, NCSE — in common with a number of scholarly and journalistic observers of the social controversies surrounding climate change — opts to use the terms "climate change deniers" and "climate change denial. The terms are intended descriptively, not in any pejorative sense, and are used for the sake of brevity and consistency with a well-established usage in the scholarly and journalistic literature."
- ↑ Weart 2015 footnote 136a Archived 4 May 2010 at the Wayback Machine.: "I do not mean to use the term 'denier' pejoratively—it has been accepted by some of the group as a self-description — but simply to designate those who deny any likelihood of future danger from anthropogenic global warming."

He brought with him a backlash that had been building against the environmental movement. Many conservatives denied nearly every environmental worry, global warming included.

- ↑ Weart 2015 The Summer of 1988 Archived 29 June 2016 at the Wayback Machine.: "A new breed of interdisciplinary studies was showing that even a few degrees of warming might have harsh consequences, both for fragile natural ecosystems and for certain agricultural systems and other human endeavours ... The timing was right, and the media leaped on the story. Hansen's statements, especially that severe warming was likely within the next 50 years, got on the front pages of newspapers and were featured in television news and radio talk shows ... The story grew as the summer of 1988 wore on. Reporters descended unexpectedly upon an international conference of scientists held in Toronto at the end of June. Their stories prominently reported how the world's leading climate scientists declared that atmospheric changes were already causing harm, and might cause much more; the scientists called for vigorous government action to restrict greenhouse gases."
- ↑ Weart 2015: "Environmentalist organizations continued ... lobbying and advertising efforts to argue for restrictions on emissions. The environmentalists were opposed and greatly outspent, by industries that produced or relied on fossil fuels. Industry groups not only mounted a sustained and professional public relations effort but also channeled considerable sums of money to individual scientists and small conservative organizations and publications that denied any need to act against global warming."
- ↑ Begley 2007: "Through advertisements, op-eds, lobbying and media attention, greenhouse doubters (they hate being called deniers) argued first that the world is not warming ... Then they claimed that any warming is natural ... Now they contend that the looming warming will be minuscule and harmless. 'They patterned what they did after the tobacco industry,' says former senator Tim Wirth ... 'Both figured, sow enough doubt, call the science uncertain and in dispute. That's had a huge impact on both the public and Congress.'"
- ↑ Weart 2015: "The technical criticism most widely noted in the press came in several brief 'reports'—not scientific papers in the usual sense—published between 1989 and 1992 by the conservative George C. Marshall Institute. The anonymously authored pamphlets ... [claimed] that proposed government regulation would be 'extraordinarily costly to the U.S. economy,' they insisted it would be unwise to act on the basis of the existing global warming theories ... In 1989 some of the biggest corporations in the petroleum, automotive, and other industries created a Global Climate Coalition, whose mission was to disparage every call for action against global warming."
- ↑ Conway & Oreskes 2010: "Millions of pages of documents released during tobacco litigation ... show the crucial role that scientists played in sowing doubt about the links between smoking and health risks. These documents ... also show that the same strategy was applied not only to global warming, but to a laundry list of environmental and health concerns, including asbestos, secondhand smoke, acid rain, and the ozone hole."
- ↑ Weart 2015: "Scientists noticed something that the public largely overlooked: the most outspoken scientific critiques of global warming predictions did not appear in the standard peer-reviewed scientific publications. The critiques tended to appear in venues funded by industrial groups, or in conservative media like the Wall Street Journal."
- ↑ Conway & Oreskes 2010
- ↑ Weart 2011, p. 46: "Scientists continually test their beliefs, seeking out all possible contrary arguments and evidence, and finally publish their findings in peer-reviewed journals, where further attempts at refutation are encouraged. But the small group of scientists who opposed the consensus on warming proceeded in the manner of lawyers, considering nothing that would not bolster their case, and publishing mostly in pamphlets, books, and newspapers supported by conservative interests. At some point they were no longer skeptics—people who would try to see every side of a case—but deniers, that is, people whose only interest was in casting doubt upon what other scientists agreed was true."
- ↑ Weart 2011, pp. 47: "As the deniers found ever less scientific ground to stand on, they turned to political arguments. Some of these policy arguments were straightforward, raising serious questions about the efficacy and expense of proposed carbon taxes and emission-regulation schemes. But leading deniers also resorted to ad hominem tactics ... On each side, some people were coming to believe that they faced a dishonest conspiracy, driven by ideological bias and naked self-interest".
