Perry and other AGW skeptics are Copernicus denying the “established” scientific consensus that the solar system orbits the earth.

A good analogy is what happened to scientists in the USSR under Stalin by his pet agronomist, Tofim Lysenko (who began killing off scientists who disputed his "science").

>>>Agronomy is the application of a combination of sciences like biology, chemistry, economics, ecology, earth science, and genetics. Agronomists today are involved with many issues including producing food, creating healthier food, managing environmental impact of agriculture, and creating energy from plants.<<<

I believe the Stalin era state sponsored socialism promoting ersatz science was known as “Shadow Science.”

Star Treks Chekov was a big fan of Russian “Shadow Science” in that anything important (like quadro triticalie) was a Russian invention.
