    The support was already in the narrative. I'm afraid you're in denial.

    Yes. Her skepticism concerns the claim of a climate catastrophe.

    She lacks the maturity to be a scientist of integrity. Sloppy, biased, vacillating as well as unnecessarily accusatory & inflammatory.

    Exactly. Only an issue in denialists' fossil fuel-funded dreams.

    the best system is one that uses all systems, as in one capable of supporting energy from any system

    the USA needs to upgrade our energy grid too

    Example: a car that runs on electricity can run on electricity created from many different sources - if you run out of oil, there are alternatives

    if oil is your single point of failure... could mean trouble down the line

    I suspect the denial is elsewhere.

    The paramount denial of science is the alarmist claim of impending doom with no scientific proof that human CO2 emissions are the cause of the current Holocene warming period.

    Plenty of examples - that will make zero difference to a denier.

    No there are not, and you have again misidentified the denier.

    Google and 1 minute is all you'll need.

    P.s the bibliography that you cite might be a little outdated, lol. But you knew that.

    Over and out.

    Her CV remains valid. (A bibliography, btw, concerns books, not a person's record.) The smears I'm sure you cherish do nothing to diminish her standing.

    Climate Science's Myth-Buster - City Journal

    City Journal

    Curry’s pragmatism may not win acclaim in environmentalist circles or among liberal pundits, though no one effectively contests the validity of her research or rebuts the data that she cites about an exceedingly complex reality. But then, neither reality nor complexity mobilizes passions as much as myths do, which is why Judith Curry’s work is so important today. She is a myth-buster.

    You didn't even bother reading what you quickly Google-Fu'd did you?

    Rhetorical question, really.
