Why do climate change deniers tend to be those who know the science the least.

They tend to be conservative religous republicans with little intrest or knowledge of science why is this and to be in the GOP these days climate change denial is paramount.

right... I've read over 300 peer reviewed studies to confirm agw is a tax scam. Congrats to Bill Gates he's banked on it.

Perhaps you could link us to, say, five such leading peer reviewed studies?

BTW, did you ever ask where does the money for climate denial come from? The US oil industry makes about $110 billion per year; coal another $20 billion. Big Oil spends $3.6 billion per year on advertising; a sum equal to about 8X the whole NSF climate budget. You're not naive enough to believe none of that money goes to propaganda, are you?

@ElwoodBlues That's the thing; you have to know how to read a study.
