    I scored 8 out of ten answering according to my impression of the politics of the Heartland Institute and my guess that this was not an honest "test" (I missed one because I thought it was a trick question about "earth" instead of "earth's atmosphere", instead of simply a misleadingly phrased question).

    The "facts" section is of course mostly nonsense. They still have the bogus stuff about the satellites showing a recent cooling, even - debunked for years now.

    Besides being plain wrong, the test is obviously flawed in many ways.

    Here's a paradigm of one such flaw:

    What causes erosion?
    a. Gravity
    b. Electrons
    c. Water and Ice
    d. Abrasion

    Yeah, it's a bullshit "push poll" test. I got 100% right, but the test is wrong.

    What happens when you drop a hot nuclear reactor core on clathrate deposits? Or blow one up with a nuclear weapon? Instant warmer winters?
