Revealed: US climate denial group working with European far-right parties
The Guardian ^ | 01/22/2025 | Helena Horton, Sam Bright and Clare Carlile

Climate science deniers from a US-based thinktank have been working with rightwing politicians in Europe to campaign against environmental policies...

For the past two years, representatives of the thinktank have been working with MEPs and have spoken in the European parliament to campaign against bills, including the nature restoration law. They have sought to cast doubt on established climate science, and connected climate-sceptic MEPs from Poland, Hungary and Austria to help coordinate campaigns against proposed environmental laws.

In the past, it has compared people who believe in global heating to the Unabomber, the US terrorist jailed for killing three people and injuring many others, as well as branding the concept of human-caused climate change “fake news”.

In October, Taylor visited Poland at the invitation of its Solidarity union, which has been campaigning against the closure of the country’s coalmines. There, he met the former prime minister Beata Szydło, leaders of heavy industry and agriculture, as well as scientists at one of the country’s top universities, delivering a presentation that sowed doubt on climate science. Heartland and Solidarity then signed a joint declaration claiming that actions to address the climate crisis “aim solely to provoke widespread fear and a sense of threat, especially among young people, without finding – so far – confirmation in scientific research”.

“In our role as gadfly, we have helped foment dissent and encouraged and publicised protests against higher energy taxes, climate restrictions, and wind and solar subsidies.

“Based on the fact that a number of energy taxes in different EU countries have been delayed, reduced, or scuttled altogether and climate policies have been modified to reduce their economic impact, there is at least some evidence our efforts have borne positive policy fruit.”

(Man caused) climate denier here. I can remember when this all began back in the 1970s and they were claiming that the earth was cooling and we were on the brink of a new Ice Age. When that did not happen they switch to the earth is getting warmer and it was Global Warming. Now they just use “climate change” to fool anyone that still believes “the science”.

The earth’s climate has been changing since creation. We have both geological records as well as written records going back thousands of years.

The spot I am sitting in at this moment was once under thousands of feet of ice. Eventually the earth got warmer and the glacier receded back up to the great white Canada.

The records are there for anyone to check. So why are they trying to destroy western civilization in the name of “Climate Change”?

My guess is they are using fear to gain control over governments and people.

Start your article with a lie and it a waste of time to publish

Rational logical challenges to the dogmas of the Church of Climate Change is Science in action

Screaming “deniers” at anyone who challenges your feelings is intellectually the same thing the Catholic Church did in the Medieval era when they proclaimed people to be “heretics”

Yes, say my friends in Texas and Florida experiencing snow and freezing temperatures.

Anthropogenic climate change is a joke.
