Negative Positive
Title: industry propaganda
Review: Micheals and Patrick are among the leading skepitics of global warming in the international scientific community. And they are being paid well by the fossil fuel industry for their skepticism. Michaels has recieved substantial funding from the German Coal Mining Association and Western Fuels. Balling has recieved funding from the British Coal Corporation, German Coal Mining Association, and the Kuwait Foundation among others. The vast majority of their research is not peer-reviewed and the conflict of interest should be obvious. It's amazing how a hand-full of industry sponsored skeptics can marginalize the expertise of the 2,500 international climate experts that comprise the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
Is the review positive or negative?
