The followup is unnecessary and inappropriate in this, or possibly any, article. I'm not sure the "review" is necessary or appropriate in the article. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 08:40, 13 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Nordhaus item in 2012 to include

The Wall Street Journal of January 27, 2012 response

An opinion piece in the January 27, 2012 Wall Street Journal[1]

made a number of attacks on the science and credibility of the case for global warming, including quoting Nordhaus' research to argue that economics does not support policies to slow climate change in the next half-century.

Nordhaus rebutted their contentions point-by-point in an article [2], drawing analogy with the well-documented use of PR by the Tobacco industry faced with financially disastrous scientific findings, to manufacture doubt, rather than by to establish the facts. He quotes their stated aim of fostering confusion

“Doubt is our product since it is the best means of competing with the ‘body of fact’ that exists in the mind of the general public.”


Three signatories of the original piece Richard Lindzen, William Happer and an ex-ExxonMobil manager of Strategic Planning & Programs Roger W. Cohen responded to Nordhaus' comments, and Nordhaus replied to the three's response.[3].
