Oh yeah, his "claim to fame" is his book "the Skeptical Environmentalist",
wherin he supposedly "facts and reasons" away most of the claims of the
environmental movement in a "scientific" fashion by redefining and
delimiting "scientific" to mean "reducing the scope of facts and data until
they support only the presumptions of the big money sugar daddies and
government policy fatcats I wanna impress with this". His "reformed green"
behavior is by far the most annoying piece of the whole story.
A better title would have been "the genuflected environmentalist - a rear
view".
