Des Moines Register: If the scientific community isnt telling you what you want to hear, you might just have to buy your own scientist. That pretty much sums up the public perception of the relationship between the fossil fuels industry and Wei-Hock Soon, a scientist frequently cited by groups denying a link between climate change and human behavior.

Climate Change Deniers Take Yet Another Hit

Mother Jones: Climate change deniers don't have a lot of credible scientists who support their view. But they have a few, and one of the busiest and most prolific is Wei-Hock Soon, who insists that global warming is caused by variations in the sun's output, not by anything humans are doing. Soon's doctorate is in aerospace engineering, not atmospheric science or geophysics or some more relevant discipline, but he's nonetheless an actual scientist and a reliable ally for the climate deniers.

Time: It`s not often that the climate change deniers get clobbered three times in just two days. But that`s what happened with the release of a trio of new studies that ought to serve as solid body blows to the fading but persistent fiction that human-mediated warming is somehow a hoax.

"Today's news is a clear and undeniable warning for all of us that we need to cut climate pollution and prepare for what's...
