I don't think that we should be too disturbed about seeing that government sites and others required to hold a balanced perspective should link to sceptic sites with even a minimum standard of credibility. Being open to a charge of censorship would simply consolidate antagonism to research results.
Scepticism about climate change is not in the same ball park as creationism, even though the two often go together. They are entitled to a voice, evn though we don't personally choose to listen.
