News flash for those who can't read: the author did NOT deny that AGW is happening. Why don't you actually read the whole article and then you might not seem so clueless about what the topic is.Science has never even attempted to assert that questions regarding AGW are unallowed. It takes place every day all across the planet. That the views of deniers have failed to take hold among climate scientists is not the fault of censorship but of the quality of the science. AGW is still a subject of intense research and no one has ever claimed that all is known on the topic. This argument reminds me of those who questioned evolution. It is a complex topic about which complex conversations take place. Anyone advocating a binary, simplistic, take it or leave it approach has simply identified themselves as purveyors of pseudoscience.
And no one prevents anyone, in THIS country at least, from objecting to government remedies to address it. Write your senators and representatives, post your opinions to the newspapers and flood the internet. But remember that those who may disagree with you possess the same freedoms. Freedom of speech is not freedom from being criticized.
And you might read up also on the fact that nobody using ANY study or facts that don't support AGW as an existential threat to Planet Earth is granted any government monies to study the issue. Further they are not allowed to work for any of the organizations who are pushing that as a fact including most of the media. And any information questioning the government or 'scientists' who push AGW is generally seriously buried or eliminated from search engines on the internet. Heidi Cullen of the Weather Channel even went public to say that the credentials should be pulled for ANY meteorologist who questions AGW.
