the great global warming swindle

The idea that "big corporations" are all opposing the pro-global-warming agenda is a myth. There is a huge pro-man-made-global-warming push being made by corporations that see "alternative energy" as the gigantic subsidy cash cow that it is.

This is one of the extremely rare times where I 'somewhat' agree with borodog on something. Corn ethanol is a gigantic subsidy and a complete waste of time. It is being pushed as a solution to climate change when it is better to just burn oil. Not surprisingly some oil companies (i.e. Shell = Iogen) are behind these "feel-good" companies and are reaping billions in subsidies. Unfortunately almost all of the good alternative energy programs are being criminally neglected.

Whether or not this is a coincidence is a debate I do not want to get into.
