[1] No. Of course "rising temperatures in some parts of the globe" and "temperatures are cooling in other parts" - duh.
But, like so many other ignorant laymen, Paul misses the point.
Climate change is about mean temperatures. What he says is 1. bullshit, 2. fringe propaganda and does not belong on Wikipedia unless we also quote a competent source that refutes it.
Please read WP:FRINGE: Fringe views of those better known for other achievements or incidents should not be given undue prominence, especially when these views are incidental to their fame.
Please read WP:BLP: Do not give disproportionate space to particular viewpoints
Please read WP:NPOV: While pseudoscience may in some cases be significant to an article, it should not obfuscate the description of the mainstream views of the scientific community. Any inclusion of pseudoscientific views should not give them undue weight. The pseudoscientific view should be clearly described as such. An explanation of how scientists have reacted to pseudoscientific theories should be prominently included.
Use of the words fiscal policy to describe opinions on the federal reserve instead of monetary policy
Hi all,
First timer here. Maybe nitpicking but in macro-economic courses that I took (Econ and math major) I was taught that the federal reserve's interest rate manipulation, open-market operations etc. were examples of monetary policy, not fiscal policy. I understand fiscal policy to be more the tool of congress i.e. changing taxes or spending money to stimulate the economy. I believe articles on fiscal vs monetary policy should support this.
