        Why would psychologist use pure propaganda term "climate change denier"? Please read why I'm skeptical: https://goo.gl/X88Wwr

        You know perfectly well there are no "climate change deniers". There are skeptics of human causation and & especially of "danger".

        Yes. It's an attempt to substitute math for biology.

        Please don't call them "climate change deniers". First of all, it's a nonsense concept, and second, it's unnecessarily insulting.

        Is there a polite term for someone who ignores evidence for political reasons?

        My concern for GMOs is with the agricultural model they are designed to support. I would like to see GM perennial wheat or rice.
