New boogeyman for the Warmists
A conservative charity gives money to climate-skeptic causes! How surprising! Roughly the whole of the conservative side of politics is skeptical of global warming so Donor's Trust sure is an heroically effective organization if they have achieved all that! Nothing however could rival what governments around the world spend on promoting Warmist causes
While the secretive Donors Trust has given millions to a variety of right-wing causes, denying climate change appears to be its top priority. An analysis by the environmentalist group Greenpeace reveals Donors Trust has funneled more than one-third of its donations — at least $146 million — to more than 100 climate change denial groups over the past decade. In 2010, 12 of these groups received between 30 to 70 percent of their funding from Donors Trust. We’re joined by Suzanne Goldenberg, U.S. environment correspondent for The Guardian, who has written a series of articles detailing the ties between Donors Trust and opponents of climate change science. "The goal here is to create this illusion, this idea that there is a really strong movement against the science of climate change and against action on climate change," Goldenberg says. "In fact, that’s actually, to an extent, become a reality now: You see that opposition to action on climate change is central to Republican thinking."

The truth is the only real threat to the cult of the green. It is interesting to see what forms paganism turned into when science almost came into it's own, which undid many of the old forms of it. Science has pretty much come and gone now.
People, generally, know just enough scientifically to essentially be worse off than before they knew any of it. But it is cute, or would be if it wasn't so threatening to sane policies, private ownership and stewardship, and economic growth, the things that actually do have "green" results. Bah!
