NextGen Climate (NGC), an
environmental advocacy group financially supported by Tom Steyer,
hedge-fund technocrat, is gearing up to unleash an advert campaign to
expose “science deniers”.
Steyer is looking to “demonstrate that you can use climate, you can do it well, you can do it in a smart way, to win political races.”
Armed with $50 million from Steyer and another $50 million being
raised right now, NGC plans to “impact politics as it relates to
climate.”
Chris Lehane, strategist for NGC explained their
firm plans to “adopt strategies that have been effective in other
cultural fights over tobacco, recycling and women’s suffrage: persuade
voters that climate change is a matter of right versus wrong, then use
the issue to drive a ‘wedge’ between voters and Republicans who align
themselves with what environmentalists argue is the wrong side of
history.”
NGC will utilize television adverts to convey to the audience “how
climate change is already upsetting the environment in each state,
hoping to transform climate change from a hypothetical issue to a
pocketbook issue.”
Meanwhile, the other side of the debate, a document has surfaced
signed by 15 independent scientists, climatologists and environmental
experts that called President Obama’s National Climate Assessment (NCA) a
“masterpiece of marketing” that showcases the current administration’s
ability to “spin a scientific topic as they see fit, without regard to
the underlying facts.”
