Can the party of Reagan accept the science of climate change?

Here is a thoughtful piece by Sherwood Boehlert, a Republican who represented New York's 24th District in Congress from 1983 to 2007. Boehlert notes: I can understand arguments over proposed policy approaches to climate change. I served in Congress for 24 years. I know these are legitimate areas for debate. What I find incomprehensible is the dogged determination by some to discredit distinguished scientists and their findings.
