Пара статей (на английском). Ничего особенно нового, но информация интересная, ИМХО.

Empiricism and Dogma: Why Left and Right Can’t Agree on Climate Change
Works like The Republican Brain correctly point out that those most dismissive of global warming tend to be on the Right, but they incorrectly assume that the Left’s position is therefore informed by dispassionate logic. If the Left was motivated by pure reason then it would not be the case that liberals are just as likely as conservatives to deny science on the safety of vaccines and genetically modified foods. Additionally, as Mooney has argued elsewhere, the Left is more eager than the Right to deny mainstream science when it doesn’t support a blank-slate view of human nature. This suggests that fidelity to science and logic are not what motivates the Left’s concern about global warming.

TL;DR: из конфликтующих интерпретаций одной и той же информации люди склонны верить той, что ближе к их взгляду на жизнь.

Refugees of the Modern World
[A] few dozen people have moved to Green Bank, W.Va. (population: 147) specifically because of [the local ban on radio emissions]. They say they suffer from electromagnetic hypersensitivity, or EHS — a disease not recognized by the scientific community in which these frequencies can trigger acute symptoms like dizziness, nausea, rashes, irregular heartbeat, weakness, and chest pains.

TL;DR: страдания этих людей реальны, а вот причина этих страданий, похоже, "у них в голове".

seems like it is actually opposite

the mainstream is PRO GW - which is left


the right is skeptical

i think it's more simple -
skeptical/analytical people - tend to be more conservative (more correspond to the modern right)
"feel good" people are after feeling good about themselves.

По второму вопросу, я так понимаю, что электромагнитными колебаниями эти люди называют какой-то специфический спектр? Тепло и свет их устраивают. Не стремятся к абсолютному нулю.
