Politicization Climate scientists on the whole, Landsea among them, don't share Happer's
specific views about global warming, but they have experienced politicization in the process of scientific inquiry.
The most one could say is that these sorts of groups have opposed
specific legislation, such as carbon taxes or drilling bans, that Brulle wants politicians to enact into law.50 This opposition may explain a lot
about Brulle's motivations, and it definitely shows that he's more interested in political victories than science, but it says nothing
about how Americans form their
views of the science of
Global Warming.
