    I’m gonna take a wild guess that the “experts” have air-conditioned homes and workplaces.

    Make them live without AC for the entire next summer and let’s see if their “expert” opinion changes.

      They were asked these questions by journalists and they answered. Don’t blame scientists for idiot media people.

        Scientists can be absolutely the biggest idiots. I worked maintenance in a laboratory and sometimes I was impressed somebody who can genotype plankton could also tie their own shoes.

          Sure, I never claimed the opposite :) I just think in this case, the one to blame is whoever came up with the idea for this article, not the people who were asked questions.
