You've made my point - absolute drops in a bucket.
Your links contain:
-6 forged letters to a congressman
-a youtube spoof of Al Gore
-lobby group organizing political rallies (up to 1100 people!)
-$24 million from Koch's company (link to the greenpeace site, really?)
Again, against the tide of NGO and Government money spent to promote alarmism, it's like a water pistol against a firehose.
If this is the best evidence available, it's a very weak case. If the industry funded lobby groups have managed to sway the opinion of the voting public against climate charge alarmism, then they have gotten very good value for money.
- brazzy 16y agoCan you give numbers to substantiate that "tide of NGO and Government money spent to promote alarmism"? Note that this cannot include money spent on measures against climate change, since that's a different matter. How much money was spend on pure PR to "promote alarmism"? And yes, industry lobbyism is widely known to give extremely good value for money (especially when, as mentioned before, its aims line up with what the voting public wants to believe out of convenience). That's why there is so much of it.
