MasterResource has previously highlighted individuals “from the Climate Disinformation Database” of Desmog Blog where the in-their-own-words ‘expose’ revealed solid thinking and good deeds.

I am profiled, accurately but incompletely (please update). I thanked them too: DeSmog Blog: Guilty as Charged (‘hit’ profile looks good to me).

MasterResource also did “guilty as charged” posts defending Derrick Hollie, founder of Reaching America, and leading scientist John Christy. If fact, almost everyone on DeSmog’s list of deplorables should feel proud to read their profiles and deeds.

Desmog’s Climate Disinformation Database advertises itself as “where you can search and browse our extensive research on the individuals and organizations that have helped to delay and distract the public and our elected leaders from taking needed action to reduce greenhouse gas pollution and fight global warming.”…

“We are the voice of energy workers pushing back on radical green groups and the ideologues who fund them.”

In February 2018, the 501c4 advocacy group Power the Future joined the energy-policy fray on the side of consumer-chosen, taxpayer-neutral energies. Think oil and gas in particular. Coal too.

By way of introduction, I have copied material from their website for interested readers.

“What We Believe“

Four pillars:

• America is blessed with abundant and reliable energy sources that have been the lifeblood of our national advancement and prosperity.
• We must be generous stewards of our environment for this and future generations.
• Sharing facts (about energy policies, organizations and activists) creates a better-informed population.
• We can have the highest quality of life and the cleanest, most cared for environment.

The Means

We carry out these beliefs by disseminating research, sharing facts and truths, engaging at the local level and interacting with the media.

“Good profit can only result from creating value for the consumer. It is the manifestation of the entrepreneur’s respect for what the customer values.”

– Charles Koch, Good Profit (New York: Crown Business, 2015), p. 244.

“Documents Shine New Light on Koch Brothers’ Early Efforts to Abolish the Department of Energy,” reads the headline of a new report about Charles and David Koch by Desmog Blog. This organization/site also announced a Koch Network Database,

a new resource library built by DeSmog to assist journalists, academic researchers, and the public to learn more about the backgrounds of individuals and organizations associated with billionaire fossil fuel industrialists Charles Koch and David Koch‘s free market approach to a broad spectrum of civic issues.

As just a compilation of individuals and groups and their purpose and work, “guilty as charged” would apply.…

“Carbon dioxide does not control the climate. It is an essential plant food, and more carbon dioxide will produce more plant growth and a greener globe.”

“Clexit as a movement is spreading world-wide (16 countries already).”

– Vic Forbes (below)

For a while now I have been engrossed in helping to launch “Clexit”, whose aim is to get us all out of the Paris Climate Treaty and all of its associated Agendas. This will tell you all about it: The Paris Climate Treaty Should Be Torn Up.

Our initial goal was to assemble a small but impressive list of supporters spread across the globe with good credentials to speak about climate science, climate history, carbon dioxide, hydrocarbon energy, energy economics, business or politics. We have reached that goal and are now going public to seek further support and more members.…
