Unfortunately, when it comes to climate change, far too many people have been all too ready to play the Grand Inquisitor. For example, The Weather Channel’s senior climatologist, Heidi Cullen, has recommended that meteorologists be denied professional certification if they voice doubts about global-warming alarmism. James Hansen, director of the Goddard Institute for Space Studies, wants oil-company executives tried for “crimes against humanity if they continue to dispute what is understood scientifically” about global warming. Al Gore frequently derides those who dispute his climate dogma as fools who should be ignored. “Climate deniers fall into the same camp as people who still don’t believe we landed on the moon,” Gore’s spokeswoman told The Politico a few days ago.
