Quote:
The most vocal critics of climate dogma are a half-dozen think tanks that together spend less than $15 million annually on environmental issues. The half-dozen major green groups spend more than $500 million, and the federal government spends $10 billion on climate research and technology to reduce emissions.
Add it up, and it?s clear that scientists face tremendous pressure to support the ?consensus? on reducing carbon emissions, as Judith Curry, a climatologist at Georgia Tech, testified last year at a Senate hearing.
?This pressure comes not only from politicians but also from federal funding agencies, universities and professional societies, and scientists themselves who are green activists,? Curry said. ?This advocacy extends to the professional societies that publish journals and organize conferences. Policy advocacy, combined with understating the uncertainties, risks destroying science?s reputation for honesty and objectivity?without which scientists become regarded as merely another lobbyist group.?
