Following my reading of “[Five myths about climate change](https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/five-myths/five-myths-about-climate-change/2018/11/30/9fba233a-f428-11e8-bc79-68604ed88993%5Fstory.html?ref=numericcitizen.me)” by Katharine Hayhoe, a professor and director of the Climate Science Center at Texas Tech University, I find it hard to understand why people think that climate change that is currently being observed is not caused by human activities.

The five myths:

1. Climate scientists are in it for the money
2. The climate has changed before. It’s just a natural cycle
3. Climate scientists are split on whether it’s real
4. Climate change won’t affect me
5. It’s cold outside — global warming can’t be real
