The media portrays environmental groups as the underdog.
In reality, they’re the big guys, and today they’re rolling in money. What’s worse is how they use it. [some emphasis, links added]
First, they peddle scares.
They say polar bears are disappearing. They aren’t.
They claim bees are dying off. Also not true.
They spread these lies to get MORE money.
“Hysteria generates donations,” explains science writer Jon Entine. “The oxygen for these organizations is money donated by people who think they’re doing good.”
It’s why Big E now receives billions in donations.
It’s bad enough that they lie to us to get paid. But they also use their money to block progress.
One group boasts, “In the past year, our legal team has stopped thousands of miles of fossil fuel pipelines and dozens of large power plants.” They even oppose solar and wind farms.
“It’s a shame,” argues Cato Institute’s Travis Fischer, “When I think about what America could be … we could be so much more prosperous than we are.”
Our video covers more ways Big E blocks progress.
