> Richard S. Lindzen was Alfred P. Sloan Professor of Meteorology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology until his retirement in 2013. He is the author of over 200 papers on meteorology and climatology and is a member of the US National Academy of Sciences and
of the Academic Advisory Council of GWPF.
Does meteorology count as "atmospheric science"?
Does climatology count as "climate change" or "climate modeling"?
Yes. Lindzen is a working scientist. But he is not among the majority of scientists. The fact that his name shows up so goddamn often is because he is one of the very few people with those creds that speaks what deniers want to hear.

Therefore, by what reasoning do you dismiss him?
Religion.
