With the 20 year anniversary of the publication of the hockey stick graph, time for a review.
Above, a history of science denial, from tobacco to climate change, finds that the same characters keep showing up.
Below, in recent years, the attacks on science have become more focused and threatening, as fossil fuel interests have leaned hard on their allies in congress to pursue and intimidate scientists.
From C-Span, if you have not seen Michael Mann’s testimony before the House Science Committee in defense of the original Hockey Stick, do give this a look.
Great to see Dr Mann’s testimony video. Thank you!
