The Continued Concern of Scientists" by Al Huebner
" These topics can be divided into groups. The first include Global Warming and Ozone depletion.. Here those representing business interests don't overtly attack science, rather they attempt to wrap themselves in its mantle. They exaggerate the limitations always present in research results and emphasize the view of outlier scientists whose research is rarely found in the refereed literature. In Orwellian fashion their methods are described as "sound science" in contrast to " junk science" on which agencies presumably rely. By using the so-called sound science to raise the burden of a threat impossibly high, regulations to protect the environment become virtually impossible"
