No, but those who want to get rid of an open and free society are. If you are so sure that your science is right then you should be able to use the force of truth to win your debates rather then the force of law. If climate change skeptics are posing such a big obstacle to your plans to save the world, how can you be sure that there is absolutely no validity to their arguments? That said, I guess that it's easier to just steamroll them anyways and just pretend that they are all nuts. I mean, it's not like CNN or the rest of the mainstream media who have been telling us that there is consensus on the climate change debate for the last 15 years ever lies or distorts the truth, right? |
The vast majority of the scientists who researched climate change says that we're causing a global warming and that it will be a big problem in the future (it already is, actually). That doesn't mean we can be 100% certain about it, but we have absolutely no reason to doubt them since they know a lot more about the topic than we do. Also, if we do something about climate change we just lose a bit of money, but if we don't do anything it could result in billions of deaths.
If (influential) people doubt climate change, then there will be a certain amount of people who believe them, which could result in numerous deaths.
