Last Word from the Competitive Enterprise Institute

authordefault
By James Hoggan
on

The Competitive Enterprise Institute, Washington, D.C.’s favorite industry-funded โ€œenvironmental think tank,โ€ offered upย a definitive article on climate change in July of thisย year.

The CEI began by saying: โ€œGlobal warming is happening and man is responsible for at least some ofย it.โ€

You can click here and read the entire, tortured, outdated 2,913-word argument about how that’s really okay โ€“ how facing the problem might cause economic dislocation among CEI‘s major funders โ€“ but we think we have excerpted the most important part of the paper in those opening 14ย words.
