ROYAL SOCIETY TRIES TO STIFLE DEBATE ON GW
This article in the New York Sun explains how the Royal Society, a UK body that is supposed to promote the highest ideals of science, has adopted a totally one-sided approach to global warming. While it might be understandable that the mainstream media wants to promote an alarmist message (as it wants dramatic news to attract the viewer), the Royal Society should always be open to any genuine scientific research whatever its conclusion. On the other hand, the question of where it gets its funding needs to be asked. If it's the government, which I believe it is, then their independence must be very questionable.

IIRC 60% of the Royal Society's funding comes from government. You can read their annual report on their website.
