Global Warming Skepticism must be "treated"



Now the word is getting out that Global Warming Skeptics need to be ... treated. I'm assuming that means with either medication or incarceration?
Skepticism regarding the need for immediate and massive action against carbon emissions is a sickness of societies and individuals which needs to be "treated", according to an Oregon-based professor of "sociology and environmental studies". Professor Kari Norgaard compares the struggle against climate skepticism to that against racism and slavery in the US South.

The discussion, she said, is comparable to what happened with challenges to racism or slavery in the U.S. South.
