Fraudulent deniers

I hope those who are swayed by the the fraudulent movement of global-warming-denial have paid as much attention to recent leaks from the American-based Heartland Institute, as they did to the now discredited "Climate Gate" leaks of 2009.

 

Leaked documents show that the institute is funded by oil tycoons and large corporations; its brief is to discredit established science and global warming through the media and the Internet, as well as to dissuade teachers from teaching science at schools in America. The Heartland Institute (i.e. the carbon industry) is a major source of funding to a network of “experts” and bloggers who have been prominent in this campaign. Do the math.
Paul Weller said it years ago:
“The past is our knowledge, the present our mistake; And the future we always leave too late; I wish we’d come to our senses and see there is no truth; In those who promote the confusion; For this ever changing mood.”
