Sec. of State John Kerry Mocks Skeptics As ‘Shoddy Scientists’ & ‘Flat-Earthers’: ‘We should not allow a tiny minority of shoddy scientists and science and extreme ideologues to compete with scientific facts’
Kerry calls man-made global warming 'the world’s most fearsome weapon of mass destruction.' - ‘'We should not allow a tiny minority of shoddy scientists and science and extreme ideologues to compete with scientific facts,’' Kerry told the audience at a U.S. Embassy-run American Center in a shopping mall. ‘The science is unequivocal, and those who refuse to believe it are simply burying their heads in the sand,’’ Kerry said. ‘‘We don’t have time for a meeting anywhere of the Flat Earth Society.'

Via the Boston Globe Feb. 16, 2014:
Excerpts: JAKARTA, Indonesia (AP) — U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry on Sunday called climate change perhaps the world’s ‘‘most fearsome’’ destructive weapon and mocked those who deny its existence or question its causes, comparing them to people who insist the Earth is flat.
…
He outlined a litany of recent weather disasters, particularly flooding and typhoons in Asia, and their impact on commerce, agriculture, fishing and daily living conditions for billions of people. ‘‘This city, this country, this region, is really on the front lines of climate change,’’ Kerry said. ‘‘It’s not an exaggeration to say that your entire way of life here is at risk.’’ He added: ‘‘In a sense, climate change can now be considered the world’s largest weapon of mass destruction, perhaps even, the world’s most fearsome weapon of mass destruction.’’
…
‘‘We simply don’t have time to let a few loud interest groups hijack the climate conversation,’’ he said, referring to what he called ‘‘big companies’’ that ‘‘don’t want to change and spend a lot of money’’ to act to reduce the risks.

Fox News Features Climate Depot on Sen. John Kerry: ‘Critics of climate change immediately reacted to Kerry’s nomination’ – ‘Having a secretary of state who views the emission of a trace essential gas in the atmosphere – CO2 – as some sort of monster threat to national security or the equivalent the 9/11 terror attacks or the equivalent of old Soviet nuclear warheads, is a sad day in American history,’ said Marc Morano of the group Climate Depot. ‘Kerry is ignoring a large body of data and research that demolishes his beliefs. The American people deserve much better’
