"Extreme environmentalists that want us to abandon technology to save Earth are even a bigger danger to our society than Republican's who handwave away environmental science. I don't support radical environmentalist agendas and think that like Grondine they harm their cause by damaging its credibility. Reaction to such idiocy is not however justification for ignoring GW data or pasting climate scientists with the same label."

Hmm. Here's another quote from that same article- [ http://www.carleton.ca/~tpatters/teaching/climatechange/lindzen/lindzen3.html ]
"...however, among those actively involved in research and publishing frequently in peer-reviewed research journals, none believes that any man-caused global warming has been identified so far). On the whole, the debate within the meteorological community has been relatively healthy and, in this regard, unusual.

Outside the world of meteorology, Greenpeace's Jeremy Legett, a geologist by training, published a book attacking critics of warming---especially me. George Mitchell, Senate majority leader and father of a prominent environmental activist, also published a book urging acceptance of the warming problem (World on Fire: Saving an Endangered Earth). Sen. Gore recently published a book (Earth in the Balance: Ecology and the Human Spirit). Those are just a few examples of the rapidly growing publications on warming. Rarely has such meager science provoked such an outpouring of popularization by individuals who do not understand the subject in the first place. "
