The following 2 paragraphs from the LA Times were so encouraging, because they show that people who understand the causes of climate change, are standing up to the self-interest and unscientific deniers of man-made climate change. From the LA Times:
The Los Angeles Times has stirred a dust-up over global warming with a newly announced policy barring letters to the editor that deny the existence of man-made climate change.
“Simply put, I do my best to keep errors of fact off the letters page; when one does run, a correction is published,” said Paul Thornton, letters editor of the editorial page, in an Oct. 8 column. “Saying ‘there’s no sign humans have caused climate change’ is not stating an opinion, it’s asserting a factual inaccuracy.”

Now in reality, should well founded opposing opinions be edited out??? I will leave that to the LA Times editors.
