Global Warming Ideology Watch

Global Warming Ideology Watch:

Let's just say that global warming deniers are now on a par with Holocaust deniers, though one denies the past and the other denies the present and future.
-- Ellen Goodman, Boston Globe.

(Notice how she makes sure to drop several notes of her own environmental goodness throughout the piece.) University of Colorado environmental journalism professor Tom Yulsman responds:

Excuse me, but being skeptical about the scientific basis for global warming is nowhere near on a par with Holocaust denial. That is an utterly offensive statement — one that seems to comes up more and more in liberal discourse about climate change. If this is reframing the issue, count me out. I'll take run-of-the-mill catastrophism, thank you very much.
