Greenpeace activists pose as industry delegates to gain access to high level coal meetings in NYC.
Today Greenpeace infiltrated the CoalUSA conference, hosted annually by the McClosky Group which they self promote as:
Well joke’s on them; the activist group posed as the non-existent “Institute for Energy Solutions” in order to gain sponsorship at the conference. You can visit the groups website now www.tomorrowsenergytoday.org however you will land conveniently right back here on the coal is dirty homepage.
Carroll, one of our conference delegates
has been blogging on the activities and writes:
But it doesn’t end there. The truth of coal is being disseminated inside the board room also. At one point during the presentation Carroll was invited to speak, most likely to avoid the otherwise inevitable outbursts. And as the group broke for lunch, children greeted conference attendees by passing out re-branded asthma inhalers.
Keep up with the action live on the Greenpeace blog where “delegates” from the conference will be keeping up to date the actions going underway at CoalUSA.

Great story Kate - cute picture!
Disgustiing.
One of the most low down, completely disgusting things an organization such as this could do. I am in support of alternative energy sources, living healthier, smarter, and greener. But this is seriously one of the most low-down, dirty things I have read done by such an organization lately. Lying to sneak in, handing out materials to trick people to your website, etc. Where are your morals? I'm sorry, no, I don't really support the actions of the coal industry, or oil industries at all. But lead by example, not by trickery or corruption already has a stronghold upon this organization.
Wow, you guys really pulled
