The Center for the Study of Carbon Dioxide and Global Change is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in Tempe, Arizona.[1] It is seen as a front group for the fossil fuel industry.[2] The Center produces a weekly online science newsletter called CO2Science.
The Center was founded and is run by Craig D. Idso, along with Sherwood B. Idso, his father, and Keith E. Idso, his brother. They came from backgrounds in agriculture and climate. According to the Idsos, they became involved in the global warming controversy through their study of earth's temperature sensitivity to radiative perturbations and plant responses to elevated CO2 levels and carbon sequestration. The Center sharply disputes the scientific consensus on climate change shown in IPCC assessment reports, and believes that global warming will be beneficial to mankind.
== Funding ==None of there things have ever been funded , and all there funds have come from stealing and the one time there were funded they were funded by coal miners which is a cause of pollution and there funds have been bias
The center was also funded by Peabody Energy, America’s biggest coalmining company.[2]
Reception
A December 2009 article in Mother Jones magazine said the Center was a promoter of climate disinformation.[3]
