CEI's Right Hand Has No Knowledge of its Left – Seriously …

By Richard Littlemore

In response to reports that self-serving corporate donors fundedย Competitive Enterprise Institute’s pro-CO2 television ads, CEI now claims that โ€œwe produced and were airing the ads without any involvement from ourย donors.โ€

Say what? Big-time corporate donors (including auto and energy industry majors) give CEI money. CEI uses the money to produceย commercials that make oil refineries look pretty – but the hapless donors have no knowledge of, or investment in, CEI‘sย output.

Anybody who believes that would also believe that an ever-increasing amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is good for youย โ€ฆ.
