GARDINER: Confidence in climate change
I was greatly surprised to see the backlash Thomas Forman has received for his piece against climate change denier Phil Valentine speaking on Grounds last weekend. I too firmly believe that skepticism over anthropogenic climate change is an opinion that should not receive the privilege of a university forum, and I’m concerned that the complaints about Mr. Forman’s piece reflects the damage global warming skeptics have already caused to the national discourse on this subject.
