Criticism
The UCS is regularly criticized by conservative and right-wing groups for being "left-wing" and "liberal". David Martosko of ActivistCash.com asserts that the organization harbors a "pro-regulation, anti-business" agenda. The UCS is also often criticized by skeptics of global warming. In 2007, the conservative think tank Capital Research Center accused the UCS of waging a "jihad against climate skeptics", and televangelist Jerry Falwell even cautioned Evangelical Christians against "falling for...global warming hocus-pocus" propagated in the mass media, with the UCS "leading the charge". Additionally, in 2006, two physicists associated with the American Physical Society criticized the UCS for not supporting a government-run nuclear waste reprocessing program.
