Goreham: I find that the scientific community is usually not very open to skeptical ideas about man-made climate change. Climate skeptics are labeled “deniers,” as in “holocaust deniers.” Most arguments against skeptical positions claim consensus, as in “97 percent of scientists agree with the theory of man-made warming,” or personally attack the skeptic as “a shill for energy companies,” rather than discuss the science.

My presentations at colleges attract strong student interest, but these presentations are usually sponsored by the economics departments. My requests for a debate on the science of global warming with science departments have been turned down by ten different universities in the Midwest.
