This is absolutely appalling (see below; source – Faith Action for Climate Solutions): a leading climate science DENIER, Patrick Michaels of the Cato Institute, is coming to the Lewinsville Presbyterian Church, 1724 Chain Bridge Road in McLean, this Wednesday night. I strongly encourage anyone who can make it to do so and to firmly, but civilly, counter this malicious, pernicious, fossil-fuel industry propaganda. For more information on Patrick Michaels, see Patrick Michaels’ 30 Years of Climate Denial, ExxonSecrets Fact Sheet on Patrick Michaels, SourceWatch page on Patrick Michaels (“a largely oil-funded global warming skeptic who argues that global warming models are fatally flawed and, in any event, we should take no action because new technologies will soon replace those that emit greenhouse gases”). As for the Cato Institute, suffice it to say that it was “founded by Charles G. Koch and funded by the Koch brothers,” and that it’s “an ‘associate’ member of the State Policy Network, a web of right-wing ‘think tanks’ in every state across the country.” Seriously sick sh*t.
