Philosophy is a science and even though numerical and empirical methods in regards to the research and analysis of the subject of philosophical experiments are not always effective, as any other science it always requires structure and methods that would help to get arguments and supportive data as well as make conclusions.
The history of science knows a lot of controversial issues and times when some new discovery or direction of inventions was popularly believed to be inherently evil, immoral and bringing the downfall of human race with it. Most commonly it was said about the discovery of some new law of nature, or possibility to cure illnesses by unusual methods, or ways of using the above mentioned laws to the advantage of the human. And most commonly later it was decided that the new discovery carries nothing bad in itself but, in fact, is useful and may be used to bring a lot of good.
Each of us was given the ability and gift to understand people from cognitive and emotional aspects. Theory of mind is the notion that describes the ability of an individual to sense and analyze the way of thinking of another person. One of the greatest parts of this theory is the capability of one person to see things and realities from another person’s perspective. In real life this complicated definition means that people who know the theory of mind will be able to admit that their opinion is not a universe truth and will be open for the discussion of various views on the specific subject. People who lack the proper knowledge in this field in the same situation will most probably find it extremely difficult to understand why no one else sees that their opinion is correct and will be put off by the time spent for the discussion of obvious (from their perspective) subjects.

There are several common factors of all the philosophical methods known up to know. All of them include hypothesis stating, formulation of primary research questions and limiting the scope of the analysis, research on previous related studies and analysis of the new data. Due to the liquidity of subjects that are covered by philosophical analysis, all the developed methodologies require critical thinking and counter or alternative hypothesis to be tested against.
If someone tells me that climate is constantly changing and nature is not stable, I would try to assure him that nature is perfectly stable in the major trends and developments. We are changing every day, time makes us different. As well as we cannot enter the same river twice, we will not be able to be exactly the same as we were yesterday, as today we are one day older.
Nature is more alive than anything else and we are a part of it. Therefore, if we change, nature cannot remain the same. People keep talking about climate change for at least another century. In fact, during this century the climate was as stable as before and changes were always in place. It is probably a different way of looking at the clime change, but at least it gives me a belief that nature has its cycle and changes are all natural.
