- Scientists paid to trash climate study
  Posted by SoxFirst
  Much attention at the end of last week on the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report which predicted dire consequences of heat waves, cyclones, droughts, rising seas, if the world failed to act quickly. Now we discover the Exxon Mobil funded think tank, the American Enterprise Institute has been bribing scientists to say it isn't so.

- The greening of Exxon Mobil?
  Posted by SoxFirst
  After years of condemning climate change campaigners, Exxon Mobil now says it’s going green. But a closer look reveals the company’s line on global warming is still the same. It’s just being pragmatic.

Sustaintability and insurance risks

One of the many tragedies of the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina three years ago was the fact that insurance companies used the event to systematically deny claims, leaving victims further in desperate straits. That shouldn’t happen following any natural disaster, and even though the immediate storm effects did not cause as much damage as predicted, there are sure to be plenty of claims for flood damages throughout the Midwest and along Gustav’s path. If you or someone you know has been denied an insurance claim related to Gustav: that would be a site you should visit.

US business in the dark on climate change

I’m sure Canadian businesses aren’t far behind, though there’s an imbalance in the average created almost exclusively by the corporations making their living off exploiting the northern Alberta (Athabasca) Oil Sands – with virtually zero consideration for even the local biosphere or environment.
