From: djarm67 | Aug 19, 2011 | 8,627 views Lord Christopher Monckton is a British consultant, policy adviser, writer, columnist, and hereditary peer. While not formally trained in science, Monckton is one of the most cited and widely published climate skeptics, having even been invited to testify to the U.S. Senate and Congress on several occasions.
Monckton is listed as a "Chief Policy Advisor" for the Science and Public Policy Institute (SPPI). The SPPI was until recently managed under the name "Center for Science and Public Policy Institute" by another free market think-tank called the Frontiers of Freedom. Frontiers of Freedom has received over $1 million in funding from ExxonMobil and over $1 million from Koch Industries.
Monckton is listed as a "Global Warming expert" for the Heartland Institute, a Chicago-based free market think-tank. The Heartland Institute frequently attacks the scientific evidence for human-caused climate change. The Heartland Institute has received over $791,000 from oil-giant ExxonMobil since 1998.
