Friends of Science Society has done a deconstruction of several of the most cited '97% consensus' studies, only to find there is no consensus. They're fooling you with group think. You can see how it works in this video of the Asch Conformity Experiment, introduced by psychologist Dr. Philip Zimbardo, which is referred to in the above presentation. https://youtu.be/NyDDyT1lDhA ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hJujb-VnaCM

Ecojustice, a federally registered charity, has recently launched a legal challenge against the Alberta Inquiry into foreign-funded activity against the energy and resource sector, often referred to as the “Tar Sands Campaign.” According to a 2012 document from the CRA to Friends of Science Society, charities are not allowed to engage in political activity to change laws, but Ecojustice has been doing that since its inception. Michelle Stirling, Communications Manager for Friends of Science Society discusses correspondence with the CRA which indicates that ‘climate change’ is not a local, measurable or tangible cause, according to the CRA directive; nor do Ecojustice donors – some 19,000 individuals plus some family foundations funding Ecojustice are supposed to provide a ‘net benefit’ to Canada through this ‘charity’. But what is the ‘net benefit’ when they put over100,000 people out of work and crater the Albertan and Canadian economies with global reputational damage and billions of dollars in investment fleeing the country and province? So, the question must be asked about Ecojustice – “How is this charitable activity?” The Tar Sands Campaign is well documented as a coordinated, foreign-funded effort to demarket the Alberta Oil Sands. Some references include: Corporate Ethics bragging about coordinating 100 groups against the oil sands: “Michael 'Marx' advised the International Tar Sands Oil Campaign, which included over 100 groups working in the U.S., Europe and Canada.” https://corpethics.org/about/ An overview with links to campaign documents: https://www.counterpunch.org/2013/10/16/how-tides-canada-controls-the-secret-north-american-tar-sands-coalition/ A document showing how Keystone XL was intentionally blocked by a coordinated campaign of ENGOs and certain First Nations groups: http://internationalfunders.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/IFIPConferenceReport2010.pdf. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLXVZP8k2KU

Prior to the Climate Leadership Catastrophe event May 10, 2016 in Calgary, Ezra Levant talked with Michelle Stirling, Communications Manager for Friends of Science about the varying degrees of skepticism on the causes of climate change, policy, economics and mitigation. He noted that many people privately have skeptical views on one or all of these issues, but they fear speaking up because they feel alone. The more people who express their views, the more people will feel free to speak up. Speak up and speak out against paid 'climate catastrophy' lobbyists. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZffLU6wxkAs
