Those who deny the validity of climate science -- in particular the Nobel-prize winning IPCC work -- and deny the need for urgent action, like to call themselves "skeptics." I recently wrote about why the most accurate label for these people is "denialists," and have encountered push-back from two quarters: from the denialists themselves, who bristle at the implication that they are in some way equivalent to Holocaust deniers, and from Climate Progress, which makes an argument in favor of the term "delayer" instead.
