Professor of biology and "religious naturalism" teacher compares climate realists to Holocaust deniers

Professor seeks input from climate change deniers | Student Life

Biology Professor Ursula Goodenough’s year-and-a-half-long experience as a science writer for NPR’s 13.7 blog gave her unique insight into how atmospheric climate change is debated in the blogosphere.
...Although she does identify as a climate scientist, she said that her work as a biological scientist is still relevant to the climate debate at large.
...
“I guess I was surprised at their level of vitriol,” Goodenough said. “If you’re gonna do this online blogging thing, you’ve got to develop a thick skin.”
...
As a scientist, Goodenough has been trained to use the phrase “climate change” instead of “global warming.” In her first blog post, she used the phrase “climate change deniers,” but it was soon pointed out that the preferred term is “climate change skeptics.”

Goodenough pointed out her reluctance to use this latter term.
