I like when some writer at some big newspaper makes big accusations against someone while providing no evidence of it. For instance,
this article from the Gaurdian.
Today's campaigners against action on climate change are in many cases backed by the same lobbies, individuals, and organisations that sided with the tobacco industry to discredit the science linking smoking and lung cancer. Later, they fought the scientific evidence that sulphur oxides from coal-fired power plants were causing "acid rain." Then, when it was discovered that certain chemicals called chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) were causing the depletion of ozone in the atmosphere, the same groups launched a nasty campaign to discredit that science, too.
The link he has listed there makes no reference to these lobbies, rather it is just another article from the Gaurdian about the same thing.
Just another enviro-nutter who is desperatly trying to save the planet with an unproven theory. What these writers are really doing are trying to stay relevant so they can keep their jobs.
