Check out this fine compendium of the world’s most prominent climate cranks in this week’s Rolling Stone. Tim Dickinson succinctly summarizes the wretched roles played by seventeen of the worst offenders in preventing climate progress.

Among the guilty:

The Profiteer -Warren Buffett CEO, Berkshire Hathaway
The Disinformer – Rupert Murdoch CEO, News Corporation
Burning Man – Rex Tillerson CEO, ExxonMobil
The Drudge of Denial – Marc Morano Founder, Climate Depot
God’s Denier – Sen. James Inhofe Republican, Oklahoma
The Pundit – George Will Commentator, ABC

Collect them all at the Rolling Stone. Maybe they should come out with action figures too…
