"I came away from my meeting with this famous climate skeptic feeling pretty depressed. What I had seen was a scientist whose work, in my opinion, was simply not very good."

  2. As the scientific case for human-caused global warming becomes more and more one-sided, what's left of the scientific support for global warming skeptics is amplified beyond reason as the media tries to do "both sides" balance. The result is that on the dwindling side you get worse and worse science held up as "good science".
