Kennedy in a "Huff" about Exxon Mischief

It’s nice to see the story of ExxonMobil’s climate change misinformation campaign being reported in so prominent as place as the blog Huffington Post, and nice to see so credible a source as Robert F. Kennedyย Jr.

After checking out how successful Exxon has been at disregarding the interests of Northwest Coast fishers or, say, Americans in general, have a look at Kennedy’s link to the recent advertorial by the Washington Legal Foundation. The WLF is a group of top-dollar attorney’s who appear to care not a wit for โ€œthe habitats of plant and insect speciesโ€ – or for the larger human habitat if their attitude towar climate change is any evidence. WLF Chair Daniel Popeo dismisses โ€œenvironmentalists who claim that burning any fossil fuel contributes to globalย warming.โ€

That’s a group that now includes ExxonMobil, unless the WLF knows something weย don’t.
