RE: Oil conglomerate 'secretly funds climate change deniers'

CRU at the University of East Anglia alone has received nearly that much money - much of it from taxpayers.(Though some from Shell. Strange how Big Oil money doesn't corrupt 'science' when it is pro-AGW)

State directed funding of climate science *vastly* outweighs private funding of climate science. Whose vested interest is larger? The sums of money speak for themselves.

I think world-wide Gov funding of climate alarmism is several thousand times higher than the sum here involved. I read an article about it recently but can't rememmber where.
