A climate skeptic speaks out - Washington Post

"Deniers" is a derogatory label used by the "settled science" community of alarmists who oversold and sensationalized the impending doom and lost a lot of us in the fury. That group brought us the evolving "global warming," or renamed "climate change," or newly renamed "climate disruption," as a fact. The group also insisted that the warming, change or disruption is caused by humans.

I remain skeptical and stay away from both deniers and doomsayers alike. Does that make me a conservative?
