I've been trying to frame this question. Clearly for politicians on both sides of the issue, there isa political motive, but there's nothing too sinister about that. They are merely taking a stand on an issue in order to gain the favour of voters. However, financially, there is a lot to gain from those things that accelerate global warming (should that be the case).
I am not convinced that the global warming naysayers are acting in the interests of "exposing fear-mongering." Why is it such a big concern anyway? They're afraid people might have to, heaven forbid, act prudently...or worse yet...reduce consumption!??
