The CO2 Coalition is a nonprofit advocacy organization in the United States founded in 2015.[1] The coalition is made up of individual content contributors, researchers, and other interested individuals who hold a variety of undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate degrees all with the goal of educating the public on the vital role carbon dioxide plays in our environment[2]
Many believe the coalition is producing content that is at odds with the 'scientific consensus' on anthropogenic climate change and is spreading misinformation on climate change."[3][4]
Some have viewed it as the successor to the George C. Marshall Institute.[5]
Activities
The CO2 Coalition was one of over 40 organizations to sign a letter dated May 8, 2017, to president Donald Trump thanking him for his campaign promise to withdraw from the Paris Agreement,[6] which Trump announced on June 1, 2017.
The CO2 Coalition has published twelve white papers, six 'climate issues in-depth', eight science policy briefs, coalition member testimonies, and coalition member publications.[7]
As of 2022, the group continues to speak publicly and issue press releases on issues relating to energy production, climate change, and advocating for hydrocarbon based fuels.[8][9]
