"Doubt Over Climate Science Is a Product With An Industry Behind It"

"With its roots in the tobacco industry, climate science denial talking points can be seen as manufactured doubt."

"It’s a product that you can find in newspaper columns and TV talk shows and in conversations over drinks, at barbecues, in taxi rides and in political speeches.

You can find this product in bookstores, on sponsored speaking tours, in the letters pages of local newspapers and even at United Nations climate change talks.

This product is doubt - doubt about the causes and impacts of climate change, the impartiality of climate scientists, the world’s temperature records, the height of the oceans and basic atmospheric physics."

Graham Readfearn reports for the Guardian March 5, 2015.
