What I am saying is that "Global Warming" is a widely accepted scientific 
phenomenon.  There is relatively limited support for the opposite opinion 
(that "global warming" does not exist).  I am saying that there are tens 
of millions of dollars spent by the coal and oil industries on lobbying 
against anti "global warming" policies and public relations campaigns.  
There is no money being spent on pro "global warming" lobying and PR.
