The Greenhouse Mafia - Channel 2, Mon 13th Feb
The Greenhouse Mafia episode on Four Corners. Reporter: Janine Cohen. Broadcast: 13/02/2006
"Are Australians getting the whole truth on global warming?
Not according to evidence given to Four Corners, which returns with disturbing allegations about the power wielded by industry lobbyists, the self-proclaimed greenhouse "mafia".
A whistleblower steps forward with claims that industry representatives have burrowed deep inside the federal bureaucracy in a successful bid to hijack greenhouse policy.
"Their influence over greenhouse policy in Australia is extraordinary", he observes.
Four Corners also examines separate claims that the public is being denied full information about strategies to combat global warming.
Australians do know that last year was the hottest on record. They also know that carbon emissions are forecast to bring more heatwaves, storms, droughts, bushfires and diseases. This revealing report will help Australians understand what they are not being told.
Reporter-producer Janine Cohen investigates "The Greenhouse Mafia" – Four Corners, 8.30pm Monday 13 February, ABC TV."
