    Whatever a person thinks about the exact ratio of human vs. natural
    causes bringing on global warming or what the feedbacks are going to
    do, you have to admit that this advertising campaign is an
    incredibly stupid idea.<br>
    <br>
    I think there's a Manson one, too.  Charles, not Marilyn. <br>
    <br>
    Anyway, it would do both sides good to drop the theatrics and focus
    on the science.<br>

                                      Institute's outrageous billboard
                                      comparing people who believe in

                                      and terrorists? It's possible you
                                      missed it, since a firestorm of
                                      criticism compelled them to take
                                      down their ad in one day. <strong><a

                                      the billboard is now empty, we are

                                      week, as Heartland convenes its
                                      annual conference, we are putting
                                      up our own ad in its place and on
                                      eight other billboards nearby --
                                      so that Chicagoans and everyone at

                                      response. And we are sharing this
                                      ad far and wide.<br>
                                      <br>
                                      The Heartland Institute has a
                                      history of spreading denial and
                                      doubt about everything from
                                      tobacco to climate change. Now,
                                      they are associating everyone who
                                      believes in climate science with
                                      the worst of the worst.<br>
                                      <br>
                                      <strong>We can't let them have the
                                        last word.</strong> Serious
                                      leaders in science, business,
                                      religion and government from
                                      around the world have long
                                      recognized the need to take action
                                      to address the growing climate
                                      crisis. Our billboard will reflect
                                      their voices in the days ahead.
                                      And we need your help.<br>
