"Revealed: US Climate Denial Group Working With European Far-Right Parties"

"Representatives of Heartland Institute linking up with MEPs to campaign against environmental policies"

"Climate science deniers from a US-based thinktank have been working with rightwing politicians in Europe to campaign against environmental policies, the Guardian can reveal.

MEPs have been accused of “rolling out the red carpet for climate deniers” to give them a platform in the European parliament, amid warnings of a “revival of grotesque climate denialism”.

The Heartland Institute, which has links to the Trump administration and has drawn on funding from companies including ExxonMobil and wealthy US Republican donors, has seized on a time when rightwing anti-climate action sentiment has been surging, and has set up a new European base in London."

Helena Horton, Sam Bright and Clare Carlile report for the Guardian January 22, 2025.
