Well I'm certainly blown away by the credentials of the fine people at co2science.org.

The chairman has a PhD in geology.
The president has a PhD in agriculture.
The vice presidnet has a PhD in botany.
The ops manager has a BS in finance.

And their advisory board is similarly unqualified.

I wondered whose payroll they're on as they don't indicate their source of funding. Then I did what a researcher should do ... did some research.

Here's who Craig Idso, Chairman of the group is:
"From 2001-2002, C. Idso served as Director of Environmental Science at Peabody Energy in St. Louis, MO. According to a newsletter from Basin Electric, a Western Fuels Association member company, Craig and Keith Idso produced a report, "The Greening of Planet Earth Its Progression from Hypothesis to Theory," in January 1998 for the Western Fuels Association. Western Fuels Association is the suspected tfunder of the Center, though there is nothing more than circumstantial evidence. The Center does not reveal its funding sources."

Yep he's a shill for the energy industry. Thanks dehammer. Great job of something or other.
