via Towering Q;

I think it’s a good thing for groups like the Global Warming Policy Foundation to examine the IPCC in detail. After all, policy decisions based on reports from the IPCC will have enormous ramifications on society. I don’t think anyone would dispute this.

However, they too should not be immune to scrutiny. It is only fair that they should reveal their backers. Not to do so will invite the inevitable assumptions from their critics that oil companies are backing the group to drive their own agenda. If this is the case, just say so.

Climate scientists back call for sceptic thinktank to reveal backers | Environment | The Guardian

Hmmm...

OK Towering Q, lets say for discusion purposes that Rupert Murdoch is funding GWPF (Heh, Loony Bob Brown blames Murdoch for everything so why not make him the villan here) and the IPCC is funded by governments and activist groups (actually, it is..)

Now that we have the funding taken care of, Towering Q what is it that GWPF is wanting Australia to do ? How much money do GWPF propose to extract from the Oz tax payer ? What Oz industrys do GWPF intend to destroy ? In general, how much money do the GWPF want Australia to piss against the wind ensuring an inpoverished future ?
