Climate Change Deniers Deny Their Own Bought and Paid Scientists' Findings

[WDCRob]

The Global Climate Coalition, a group of representatives of the oil, auto and coal industries, spent years telling the public that the link between human activity and climate change was too uncertain to justify U.S. participation in the Kyoto Protocol, a 1997 treaty aimed at curbing greenhouse gas emissions. In 1995, however, a "primer" on the issue produced by the organization's own scientific experts concluded that "the scientific basis for the Greenhouse Effect and the potential impact of human emissions of greenhouse gases such as CO2 on climate is well established and cannot be denied."

This language was deleted from the primer when the group released it to the public.

Nicotine is addictive and tobacco causes cancer and we mislead people, but it's still the smoker's fault.

CO2 levels are rising and the earth is warming and it's due to human activity, but it doesn't matter because it won't cause any problems.
