‘Wanted’ posters targets Climate Criminals at Paris summit

The seven most insidious fossil fuel lobbyists in Paris to weaken attempts to agree a global climate deal have been named and shamed as ‘climate criminals’ in a dossier published by the global citizens movement Avaaz.

The seven most insidious fossil fuel lobbyists in Paris to weaken attempts to agree a global climate deal have been named and shamed as ‘climate criminals’ in a dossier published by the global citizens movement Avaaz.The group, which spearheaded last weekend’s climate marches which saw 785,000 people take to the streets globally, posted over a thousand ‘Wanted’ posters outside 5-star hotels in the French capital on Monday morning. The poster highlighting the seven most notorious dirty energy lobbyists unearthed from the list of more than 50,000 delegates at summit.On Monday morning,  Avaaz ‘Climate Cops’ will hand out flyers outside key Metro stations leading to the Le Bourget with photos of the lobbyists, who are expected to ramp up their efforts to derail a deal when ministers arrive this week to negotiate the deal.Emma Ruby-Sachs, Acting Executive-Director of Avaaz says: “These lobbyists have come to Paris to sabotage a global deal for ambitious climate action, despite over 3.6 million citizens around the world calling for 100% clean energy. Ministers must listen to their people, not polluters, and refuse meetings with climate criminals who want to derail a deal the whole world wants.”Each of the seven named lobbyists is renowned for their backroom dealings to to stop the transition to clean energy and push the interests of dirty fossil fuels. Some have resorted to harassing climate scientists and even calling for them to be ‘publicly flogged’.

The lobbyists include:

·  Benjamin Sporton, head of the World Coal Association

·  Fiona Wild, representative of mining-giant BHP Billiton

·  Marc Morano, whose trademark activity is to publish the email addresses of climate scientists to expose them to hate mail.

·  Myron Ebell, director of US think tank Competitive Enterprise Institute known for receiving money from ExxonMobil

·  Chris Horner, funded by the coal industry and known for “harassing” climate scientists in order to access to their email

·  Bjorn Lomborg, previously backed by funders with links to the Koch brothers, he’s most known as the ‘delayer in chief’ when it comes to climate

·  James Taylor, senior fellow at climate denial lobby group Heartland Institute

Examples of lobbyists’ far-reaching influence within climate meetings include The World Coal Association setting up shop next to the COP19 summit in Warsaw in 2013 to convince negotiators to embrace coal as a solution to climate change.

This resulted in the Warsaw Communiqué promoting clean coal, which has been deemed as “a myth” by National Geographic. At the COP17 in Durban in 2011, the Carbon Capture and Storage Association (comprised of major fossil fuel and power companies) successfully lobbied for carbon credits for new coal plants.

With global warming a clear scientific reality, the world has become increasingly intolerant of the fossil fuel industry’s attempts to undermine climate science and climate legislation. The campaign comes off the back of recent cases cracking down on “climate criminals,” including the investigation into Exxon for allegedly lying to the public about the risk of climate change.

The dossier is published as part of Avaaz’s 100% Clean campaign, which has been backed by more than 3.6 million people.

  1. Marc, I am frustrated about not being able to watch this film which after all this time seems to be the Mythical C-Fact ‘Climate Hustle’ movie.

    Put up a link. Tell me where I can watch it. (I am not going from Sweden to France, much less to the city of Paris).

    How do we watch it? Do we just give a donation?

    Stop telling me about this flick and just let me watch it!!!

  2. I want copies of these posters! And then I’ll make an eighth, with my photo on it!

    Every one of us skeptics should have a photo of himself/herself on a poster. How about an APP that lets us do that?

    I am Charlie is now I am Marc. The whole point of “I am Charlie” is to stand up against those who say you can only have one opinion – theirs, one ideoology – theirs, one vision for the future – theirs. I am bewildered that the alarmist frenzies don’t see the parallels to their actions throughtout history.

    Since they are in Paris, perhaps they could look up the history of the Cathars and be enlightened.

  3. “You have been charged with preaching wrongful, pernicious, and misleading doctrine about anthropogenic climate change.”
    Daring to have an opinion contrary to the ‘official truth’ about climate change automatically makes you a criminal? When did France become the Stalin-era Soviet Union?

  4. I posted the following on WUWT. It’s probably too late for a palm card response, but what the heck:

    Stupid (I’m not much of a Marc Morano fan):

    Morano statement: “Since the ‘wanted’ posters for me are all over Paris, I have relocated to a secure undisclosed location. I hope my trip to Paris for ‘Climate Hustle’ red carpet premiere will go better than JFKs trip to Dallas.”

    Better:

    “The posters are an exercise in silliness,” Mr. Morano said. ‘Climate skeptics are here promoting open debate and arguing to allow dissent. The idea that any alternative views amount to a ‘criminal’ perspective is obscene.”

    What they should have done is print some “palm cards” with the poster image on one side, but with “Wanted” crossed off and “Available” in red (or whatever EU friendly color would be good) under it. Then the back side could be the list of talking points they want to emphasize.

    Apologies in advance if HTML doesn’t work here.
