Denial is a misnomer.
Not every disagreement about the dynamics of climate change is denial.
"denial"
Climate scientists continually discuss and debate the "dynamics," which might include such things as ocean currents, Earth axis, snowmelts, levels of nitrious oxide, and a host of variables. The discussions about the dynamics never cease.
Discuss or debate?
Like I said, once you get past the broadly worded statement from the IPCC, consensus amongst climate scientists quickly fractures into different schools of thought. Too bad that Peter Sinclair is not a scientist.
