14. THE REVERSE BRITISH INVASION
http://observer.guardian.co.uk/business/story/0,6903,1431306,00.html
  The global warming "denial lobby" is targeting Britain, reports the
  Observer, and it has U.S. connections. "The UK-based Scientific
  Alliance, which organised the meeting of skeptics in London last
  month, recently published a joint report with America's George C.
  Marshall Institute, a think-tank which has received donations from
  Exxon. ... Exxon has also contributed $50,000 to the International
  Policy Network, headquartered in London. Key personnel at the IPN
  have connections with the Institute of Economic Affairs, Britain's
  leading conservative think-tank, as well as the Competitive
  Enterprise Institute in the U.S., whose global warming expert is
  Myron Ebell, President Bush's climate adviser."
