It's not because somebody persuaded them to look at the graph on CO2 and temperature, and they finally saw the evidence and were persuaded.

The interpersonal things we do change the substructure of our systems. They are political.

She insists her efforts are not an attack on the medical treatment of children's emotional well-being because the drugs are very, very "useful."
