In his Dec. 18 op-ed “How to Manufacture a Climate Consensus<\/a>,” Patrick J. Michaels of the Cato Institute falsely claims that work by him (and other fossil-fuel-funded climate change contrarians) has been unfairly blocked by me and others from appearing in mainstream science journals because the peer review process is supposedly biased against climate science deniers.<\/p>\n

In truth, the only bias that exists at such publications is for well-reasoned writing that is buttressed by facts.<\/p>\n

That is why climate skeptics such as Richard Lindzen of MIT or John Christy of the University of Alabama\u2014who are widely regarded as credible and whose work contributes meaningfully to the scientific discourse\u2014have no problem publishing their work in mainstream scientific journals.<\/p>\n

And what about those who are not being published? Every scientist dealing with a major public issue must decide if he or she is going to be a scientist or a de facto politician.<\/em><\/span>
