The GOP and Big Oil can't escape blame for climate change | Dana Nuccitelli

The New York Times magazine blames 'human nature,' but fingers have already been pointed at the true culprits

Last week's issue of the New York Times magazine was devoted to a single story by Nathaniel Rich that explored how close we came to an international climate agreement in 1989, and why we failed. The piece is worth reading - it's a well-told, mostly accurate, and very informative story about a key decade in climate science and policy history. But sadly, it explicitly excuses the key players responsible for our continued failure.
