climate change denier, definition of

A Climate Change Denier (usually just Denier) is a derogatory term used to describe a Climate Change Skeptic. Usually a sign that a debate on climate change has degraded into name calling and none science based discussion.

The implication is that the 'Denier' is denying the clearly evident facts supporting man made climate change; where as what they do dispute is the link between mans influence on the climate and the changes in the climate being seen, and how much of that change is purely due to natural processes.
