Talk:Climate change contrarianism

The source of the redirect claim

The creator of this redirect claims "this has been used in Nature (http://www.nature.com/nclimate/journal/v4/n3/full/nclimate2156.html)". Actually it's in Nature Climate Change, a separate publication. It's a paywalled article by Maxwell T. Boykoff, I have not seen the original but have seen what seems to be a copy, in which four sentences contain the word "contrarian". "Returning to Gitlin's book, even though these outlier claims were overwhelmingly dismissed through mainstream media accounts, coverage served to spotlight contrarian individuals and climate counter-movement pressure-group messages, while influencing larger public opinion. In other words, media attention on the slowdown may have inadvertently swelled the ranks of adherents to contrarian views of wider climate changes." and "In a 2013 study, Shawn Olson and I [16] explored the role of climate contrarianism, emitted from actors of the ideological right who have drawn culturally from anti-regulatory, anti-environmental and neoliberal environmental perspectives traced back to the US-based Wise Use movements — coalitions of groups promoting the expansion of private property rights and reduction of government intervention." and "Moreover, Robert Brulle has pointed to oft-critical political economic dimensions of this amplification process, namely funding for contrarian discourses from carbon-based industry groups [17]."
