Lobbyists Accused of Blocking Climate Change Efforts | BNET Energy Blog | BNET: “Could lobbyists really be working against the greater good? Say it ain’t so.

The Center for Public Integrity says it is so. The organization sent out a team of reporters to eight countries starting this July, with the intent of figuring out just how much paid industry lobbyists are affecting the debate on climate change. The answer: a whole lot.

In the United States alone the number of lobbyists working on climate change issues has blossomed to 2,800, four times the number that existed six years ago, fielded by companies like ExxonMobil.”
