Greenpeace, Sierra Club Bury Nearly Half Of Scientific Report, Mislead Americans About Mercury

A report released recently, which Greenpeace claims documents "dangerous" levels of mercury in "one in five" American women, shows the exact opposite, the nonprofit Center for Consumer Freedom said today. And the Center revealed this morning that Greenpeace and the Sierra Club have irresponsibly released only about half of the report (just seven pages out of 12) to the public on their websites, omitting crucial pages which raise questions about the report's value. The Sierra Club refers to the shortened seven-page version as "the entire report" on its website, and Greenpeace's website calls it "the full report."

More of the same IMO.

You expect the truth from a bunch of Watermelons?

[Faraday]

When will these environmentalists quit producing warm carbon dioxide? It can't be too soon.

[CIDKauf]

Yeah...there's a real shocker! (you beat me to it out of the gate!) Can you expect these idiots to tell you the truth? Its the same old "delete any information that doesn't fit our agenda" crap.

I wonder what else these clowns are trying to hide from us?

Many of us already know this technique. Have for decades.
The Cimate Study report of the 90s is the classic example of well-meaning fraud.

so...
Where can we find the full report?

Where can we find the full report?

In the LA Times and NY Times of course.. They'd never help bury the data, right? Actually, the original article linked to the full report which you can read. I'm sure that the mainstream media is right on the case right now...

Is anyone really surprised??? At least the French had the good sense to sink the "Greenpeace". We print their lies.

"I wonder what else these clowns are trying to hide from us?"

Their real agenda: A depopulated world with just enough serfs to work at subsistence wages to service the needs of a tiny ruling elite. Guess who will be the elite, the top guys in the Green movement.

The elite will enjoy helicopter tours of unspoiled lands and a luxury lifestyle. They will have a mercenary corps of well fed muscled soldiers to control the serfs. We serfs will live in agricultural compounds or craft centers where luxury goods are crafted for the elite.

Sort of a return to the early middle ages, but with technology for the rulers.

great post!
This is the biased PC BS that discredits the environmental wackos and the MSM.
The vanguard of the blogatariat should press this junk science and junk science reporting to the max.

Sort of like the Pigs in Orwell's 1984

A report released recently, which Greenpeace claims documents "dangerous" levels of mercury in "one in five" American women, shows the exact opposite, the nonprofit Center for Consumer Freedom said today.

The exact opposite? As in "four in five".

I can't stand sloppy writers.

Further into the article:

A more statistically sound ongoing study from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shows that just 5.6 percent of women of child-bearing age (far from Greenpeace's "one in five") exceed the EPA's mercury Reference Dose. Factoring in the EPA's ten-fold safety margin, the CDC found no women whose mercury levels approached a real level of concern.
