And various of the prominent Climate Change Deniers are engineers, physicists, geologists. In other words, trained in Science, but not in Climate Science.
One doesn’t have to be a climate scientist to recognize the fallacies the deniers engage in. Any reasonable capacity for critical thinking will do, and such critical thinking is often essential in technical disciplines.
Thus, the creationists and climate deniers with science degrees should know better (and usually do).
But supporting politically useful lies is a convenient way to cash out on credentials without having to do any real work.
