>For years, a group called the Manufacturers’ Accountability Project has defended Exxon, BP, Shell, ConocoPhillips, Chevron and others against lawsuits seeking to hold the oil and gas industry liable for deceiving the public about climate change and make it pay for damages associated with a warmer climate. The group has issued dozens of press statements attacking the lawsuits, been quoted in mainstream media, and hassled organizers of legal conferences—all the while claiming to be advocating for “American families and businesses.” This summer, the group’s special counsel helped write an amicus brief urging the U.S. Supreme Court to strike down climate litigation as unconstitutional.

Lots of money being spent and only so many activists. I wonder how much money they end up spending per activist, like the average.
