I doubt that somehow, in fact most people probably wouldn't even remember who the scientists were.

But in fairness to Channel 4 here, they did not suggest in any way that he was against the CO2 causes global warming theory. The scientists who were against the theory were very obvious because they argued against it. He didn't at any point argue against it.

I suspect that this is the pros looking for ways to discredit the programme rather that tackling the real issues that it raised.
