    “Misleading Ads, funding experts, lobbying opinions”

    This is also just every large industry/corporation ever

      Except the climate research industry. They alone can be trusted to provide objective research regardless of who pays them.

        The what? I’m pretty sure the “Climate research industry” doesn’t exist.

            I believe they mean that there’s no industry about climatic research, they are research groups. Industry implies there’s something being produced around it.

              And Climate research (like most research) is spread across the world at universities, government agency’s, as well as private think tanks. But it’s more telling that the poster was implying there is some shadowy cabal that is lying to us about climate change. The Climate Industry, “BIG GREEN” whose research is monolithic and never questioned.

        Do you mean like companies selling solar, wind etc. energy and green solutions and so on? Because of course their stuff should also be taken with a grain of salt.

        Energy producers (one of the largest industries) of all kinds input propaganda into the world about their business - and their business is tied to climate research for public perception. Climate is definitely a manipulated message in one form or another
