1]Ronald Bailey on what may be the most common (and politically
   influential) form of climate change denialism.

     The California Air Resources Board issued a fanciful study finding
     that mandates to cut greenhouse gas emissions will cost
     Californians essentially nothing. This is pure California dreaming.
     In his stinging critique of the study, Harvard economist Stavins
     said that putting the world on a less carbon-intensive path will
     require serious policy and sacrifice. "This will not be easy, and
     it will not be cheap," he wrote. "Indeed it will be costly."
