I'd never heard of Lynas before. He strikes me as Bjørn Lomborg character.

I think all criticism should be seriously (honestly) addressed. No worldview is above reproach. I'd eagerly watch/read a debate between Lynas and the people he criticizes. In answering his criticisms, it'd help them to refine their arguments.

But before any of that happens, I'd want Lynas to address his apparent conflict of interest.
