Follow Far Right's Climate Change Denial Money Trail

Solid investigative piece, with links to data. Read, download and archive:

The percentage of Americans accepting the reality of climate change declined dramatically... 
The reasons usually given for this backsliding are the economic downturn and the GOP’s reactionary opposition to anything President Obama supports. A new study by Drexel University environmental sociologist Robert Brulle, released Friday afternoon in the journal Climatic Change, suggests another reason: massive investment in climate change denial by interests that benefit most from frying the Earth.

Unfortunately the President has created his own credibility issues. Whether there is fact to an agenda item of his presidency, or not, does not matter with the public.

Ha Ha Ha right now there is a ship full of "scientists" stuck in the ice in Antarctica where they went to study global warming. And it's summer down there and they are experiencing near record sea ice levels. Silly Silly liberals

Apples and oranges, friend. Climate change is rapidly depleting the Arctic ice. Antarctica is a continent.

Um, the reason there's so much antarctic sea ice is so much antarctic land ice sliding off to sea. Because of warming. These days it is impossible to be a scientist and a republican.
