A Quote by Johann Hari

The climate-change deniers are rapidly ending up with as much intellectual credibility as creationists and Flat Earthers. They are nudging close to having the moral credibility of Holocaust deniers.

There are many more traits that the climate deniers share with the creationists and Holocaust deniers and others who distort the truth.

Donald R. Prothero

Climate deniers are less immoral than Holocaust deniers, although they are undoubtedly more dangerous.

Clive Hamilton

Creationists and Holocaust deniers are both very similar - both are denying what is a perfectly manifest fact. In the case of Holocaust deniers it's more recent history, but in both cases the evidence - in favour of the Holocaust and evolution - is simply overwhelming. That doesn't mean they are morally or politically equivalent. But they are equivalent in denying history.

Richard Dawkins

Well, I think of the folks who are the climate deniers as the flat Earthers and the people who say the moon landings never happened.

Jeffrey Kluger

Let's just say that global warming deniers are now on a par with Holocaust deniers.

Ellen Goodman

There are bound to be deniers. Whenever you set up a thesis there's bound to be somebody who comes the opposite way …like Holocaust deniers.

Pete Postlethwaite

Despite the international scientific community's consensus on climate change, a small number of critics continue to deny that climate change exists or that humans are causing it. Widely known as climate change "skeptics" or "deniers," these individuals are generally not climate scientists and do not debate the science with the climate scientists.

David Suzuki

I would like to say we're at a point where global warming is impossible to deny. Let's just say that global warming deniers are now on a par with Holocaust deniers, though one denies the past and the other denies the present and future.

Ellen Goodman

I … noticed something striking about my growing cast of deniers. None of them were deniers.

Lawrence Solomon

Surely it's time for climate-change deniers to have their opinions forcibly tattooed on their bodies.

Richard Glover

The obvious reductio ad absurdum is Holocaust deniers: Should their perspective be provided, for "balance," any time someone writes about the Holocaust?

Chris Mooney

Climate change is a real deal. So, hey deniers - cut it out, and let's get to work.

Bill Nye

I do think it's often a mistake to call them climate skeptics. I think they're deniers, just as I think president Ahmadinejad of iran who claims not to believe that the Holocaust occurred.

Thomas Schelling

Climate change is real and anthropogenic; and the 5th Assessment Report of the IPCC has left the deniers little room for manoeuvre, but they are swiftly morphing into a new breed that accept the climate is changing but like to suggest this may have positive benefits.

Barry Gardiner

It's funny; we never had anything like credibility. Even though we all have some sort of punk-rock background, but so what? I really don't care about that. What's credibility anyway? Who has credibility?

Mark McGrath

I don't believe that climate-change fiction will change the mind of a denier because most of the deniers I've met are basically in a cult situation. It's a faith issue. It's not a rational issue. There's no fact that's going to change their mind. They simply believe in the cult of climate-change denial and it somehow feeds into the rest of the mythos of their own life story.
