Ever since Woodrow Wilson, we created the tyranny of the "expert" who should be obeyed no matter what.
Sorry, I am not willing to believe everything the experts say.

Neither is any scientist worth his salt. Again, science is all about challenging what we think we know about natural phenomena. If a scientist decides he wants to prove global warming exists, then he is already failing at his job. I'd say that the term "expert" is applied to scientists who are not necessarily all knowing in a particular field, but are rigorous in the methods of collecting and analyzing data. So far data is showing that the earth is warming. Hypothesis' are that co2 might have something to do with it.

Short of wholesale contempt for the environment (dumping in rivers, nuclear war/fallout), there isn't much we can do to destroy the environment. Nature will kill you and not be remorseful about it. Nature is trying to kill you and it doesn't give a fuck about you.
The number one way to improve the environment is to bring economic prosperity to every community in the world. Studies show that as soon as people aren't living hand to mouth, they begin to care about where they live.

When the scientists work with political operatives to develop solutions to man-made climate change, they no longer are scientists. Carbon credits are a fucking farce as they do not curb behavior but enrich the ruling political class. Not holding India and China to the same standards but only burdening western civilization and the continent of Africa (the latter is racist on its face).

So?
An appeal to authority to a singular entity would be foolish, but it's not singular. Your analogy to a subjective event is ridiculous, the study of science which does in fact require a formal education is not the same as the evaluation of sport. Would you trust an opinion from a random fan who saw a tackle to evaluate head trauma in a tackle, or a neurosurgeon?
"I'm a skeptic, but I'm more skeptical of the experts than the mouthpieces"
I am saying that neurosurgeons and random fans both have assholes and they both use them to shit. Experts have been wrong about lots of things and they will continue to be wrong about many more things in the future, just like non-experts. They aren't made from a finer clay than you or me.
Science is objective, the practitioners of science are not necessarily so. Not acknowledging this is not very bright.Si vis pacem, para bellum.
