Excerpt:
The Washington Post first reported internal
memos revealing that the vocal "global
warming" movement and its 1997 Kyoto
Protocol were fruit of a stealthy and
extensive corporate lobbying campaign. The
ringleader? Enron (surprise!). The memos
disclosed that "green" groups were courted,
funded and even created to spread the
gospel that man is killing the planet by
burning fossil fuels, a malady Enron offered
to mitigate through its natural gas, windmill
and solar ventures.
Now similar schemes, cloaking issues in green to garner political influence and economic advantage, are arising in the market for fueling America's automobility.
In California, which excluded coal from its electricity mix thus leading to its embarrassing, expensive, and dangerous summer of 2001, corporate interests are seeking to exploit green values to set a heightened, specific requirement for a particular gasoline additive, notwithstanding its well-documented environmental (and economic) downsides.
