It’s been well over a week since we sent inquiries to Mr. Klaus-Martin Schulte regarding his relationship to the oil-industry friendly DC lobbyist, Rob Ferguson and the “Science and Public Policy Institute.”

We will continue to update everyone on the response or non-response of Dr. Schulte on these important questions.

Here’s the questions we sent him regarding his highly publicized, and highly questionable research:

1. How did Lord Monckton receive a copy of your work so far in advance of it being published?

2. Are you employed by the Science and Policy Institute, or have you received any financial compensation from the Science and Policy Institute?

3. If there is no financial relationship between you and the Science and Policy Institute, how is it that they are privy to such things as your report in advance of its publication and your follow-up “open letters” to Dr. Oreskes?
