RSS The carbon credits scheme would make ‘green’ groups much richer, but with no lowering of overall CO2 emissions.
The WWF and other green campaign groups talking up the destruction of the Amazon rainforests are among those who stand to make billions of dollars from the scare. This “green gold-rush” involves taking control of huge tracts of [...]
I recently blogged about the 10 Green groups funded to lobby the EU: The EU’s 10 Green Friends in Lobbying-Funding Loop
Now we have the press release below from ‘Transport & Environment’ involving 4 of the 10 Green groups:
Green groups sue Commission over withheld biofuels docs
On Monday 8 March 2010, a coalition of environmental groups filed [...]
The International Policy Network (IPN) have produced a report entitled: ‘Friends of the EU – The Costs of a Taxpayer-Funded Green Lobby,’ which reveals how ‘green’ pressure groups are funded by the EU in order to lobby the EU. In fact, the ‘Green 10′ are increasingly dependent on the EU for funding. Ten years ago, [...]
The Daily Telegraph reports that:
The Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) is in charge of a multimillion advertising campaign telling the country to cut down on carbon intensive activities, such as taking domestic flights.
But last year officials from DECC took just under 1,200 domestic flights, including 26 return flights to Manchester that can be [...]
With the Government’s Act on CO2 campaign recently launching a controversial advertising campaign on climate change issues, there is an increased focus on how the Government is engaging with the public over climate change. Public information campaigns – like that warning people about stroke symptoms – can be legitimate. But have climate change communications crossed [...]
I have considerable affection for, and some slight connection with, The Independent. More than 40 years ago, when I was editor of the Spectator, I gave a promising young journalist called Andreas Whittam Smith his first column. A decade or so later he founded, and was the first editor of, The Independent. And in recent [...]
BRUSSELS bureaucrats gave climate change groups more than £1.5million of taxpayers’ money last year to promote the theory that human activity is causing global warming, it emerged yesterday.
The European Commission handed out huge cash sums to Climate Action Network, Friends of the Earth and the World Wildlife Fund (WWF). In one case, British and other [...]

Had a very good meeting with Shell yesterday. Only a minor part of the
agenda, but I expect they will accept an invitation to act as a strategic
partner and will contribute to a studentship fund though under certain
conditions. I now have to [...]
The Taxpayers’ Alliance have published a new report entitled ‘Taxpayer funded lobbying and political campaigning,‘ which exposes a “tip of the iceberg” £38 million of taxpayers’ money given to groups that support government policy. Information was obtained using the Freedom of Information Act and was inspired by the FakeCharities.org website.
For the year 2007 to 2008, [...]
For the first time, the numbers from government documents have been compiled in one place. It’s time to start talking of “Monopolistic Science”. It’s time to expose the lie that those who claim “to save the planet” are the underdogs. And it’s time to get serious about auditing science, especially when it comes to pronouncements [...]
