Anti-Climate Change Cranks Strike Back!

http://thinkprogress.org/2008/02/01/heartland-climate/ Global Warming Denier Group Funded By Big Oil Hosting Climate Change Denial Conference "From March 2-4, right-wing climate-denier group The Heartland Institute will host what it calls a ‘Climate Skeptics’ Conference. Heartland President Joseph Blast boasted that his conference would feature climate change deniers: “This is their chance to speak out.” The online poster for the conference declares, “Global Warming is not a crisis!” " This I like. I like anything bought and paid for by Big Oil. "Heartland’s extreme anti-environmentalism no doubt spawns from its supporters. Between 1998 and 2005, oil giant ExxonMobil gave nearly $800,000 to Heartland." Big Oil asked me to supply the pix for the meeting of the Minds:
The snowy, sunny slopes of Jerusalem,

hanging out in balmy Baghdad,

and trying to get weather delayed trains in Guangzhou, Southern China.
