Sure reading our little daily rants about climate deniers is fun, but do you want more? Do you long to see the magnificent visage behind the keyboard? Or, perhaps you would rather see a denier squirm in person? Now's your chance!

On Monday, climate scientist Andrew Dessler will "debate" climate denier Steven Koonin at The Soho Forum in New York City, part of a series of libertarian-catered debates you can still get tickets for .

It will feature a before-and-after audience vote on the resolution "Climate science compels us to make large and rapid reductions in greenhouse gas emissions", and since it's a denier-friendly venue, they're obviously going to tip the scales in Koonin's favor, so if you're in the Big Apple on Monday and feel like subjecting yourself to this, please do!

We won't be attending the Soho Forum, but later that week we will be making an appearance at Netroots Nation in Pittsburgh, at a featured panel Thursday afternoon. Moderated by anti-extremism researcher Melissa Ryan, we'll be discussing how Solving the climate crisis starts with combatting disinformation along with Anti-Climate Disinfo Coalition co-chair Michael Khoo , Allison Fisher of MediaMatters, and Senator Sheldon Whitehouse.

So if you were thinking about attending Netroots Nation, hopefully this tips the scales, as there's still time to register ! The panel will be livestreamed too, so like the Senator, you can watch from the comfort of your own home or office.
