Natural Resources Stewardship Pjt

The Natural Resources Stewardship Project (NRSP), a Canadian non-profit group, including a number of leading <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Climate_change_sceptics" title="Climate change sceptics" class="mw-redirect">climate change sceptics</a>, was launched October 12, 2006. <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://www.nrsp.com/release_12-10-06.html">[1]</a> The website for the site, nrsp.com, was taken down in March 2008<a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Natural_Resources_Stewardship_Project#cite_note-0">[1]</a> and the group now appears to be defunct.

The NRSP has been exposed as being controlled by <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Energy_industry&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Energy industry (page does not exist)">energy industry</a> <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Lobbyist" title="Lobbyist">lobbyists</a>.<a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Natural_Resources_Stewardship_Project#cite_note-1">[2]</a><a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Natural_Resources_Stewardship_Project#cite_note-2">[3]</a>

NRSP describes itself as a group that "will promote responsible environmental stewardship through:

<ul><li>broad-based media, government and <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Public_relations_firms" title="Public relations firms">public relations</a>;</li><li>consumer education and advocacy;</li><li>private initiative and the promotion of private property rights;</li><li>market-based approaches; and</li><li>sensible and efficient legislative and regulatory frameworks, particularly at the federal level." <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://www.nrsp.com/background.html#6">[2]</a></li></ul>

<h2> NRSP's Genealogy</h2>

The NRSP maintains it has no direct connection with the Calgary-based group of climate change skeptics the "<a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Friends_of_Science" title="Friends of Science">Friends of Science</a>" <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://www.friendsofscience.org/">[3]</a> (FoS), even though the FoS's most outspoken member, <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Tim_Ball" title="Tim Ball">Tim Ball</a>,

is now the Chairman of the NRSP. With the exact same purpose and goals,

and most of the same scientific allies and members as the Friends of

Science, the NRSP is viewed by many as a reincarnation of the FoS, after

the FoS was "outed" by The Globe and Mail newspaper in August 2006 as being partly funded by the oil and gas industry. <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://www.charlesmontgomery.ca/mrcool.html">[4]</a>.

The NRSP project is led by Executive Director, <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Tom_Harris" title="Tom Harris">Tom Harris</a>, who, in November 2002, while in the employ of the <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Public_relations_firms" title="Public relations firms">public relations</a> firm <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/APCO_Worldwide" title="APCO Worldwide">APCO Worldwide</a>, organized a press conference titled "International Climate Experts Speak Out Against Climate Change Myths." <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://www.climatesearch.com/newsDetail.cfm?nwsId=54">[5]</a>. The press conference was sponsored by <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Talisman_Energy_Inc." title="Talisman Energy Inc.">Talisman Energy Inc.</a> and Imperial Oil (<a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/ExxonMobil" title="ExxonMobil" class="mw-redirect">ExxonMobil</a>'s Canadian subsidiary). <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://thetyee.ca/Mediacheck/2006/05/02/PaidtoDenyGlobalWarming/">[6]</a> Many of the same scientists and advisors now linked to the NRSP were present, including Tim Ball.

NRSP describes its "first priority project" as being "Understanding

Climate Change: A proactive grassroots campaign to counter the <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Kyoto_Protocol" title="Kyoto Protocol">Kyoto Protocol</a> and other greenhouse gas reduction schemes while promoting sensible climate change policy." <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://www.nrsp.com/background.html#6">[7]</a>

<h2> NRSP Activities</h2>

The NRSP has pursued its "grassroots" campaign on climate change

through online and print articles, letters to the editor, open-line

radio appearances and a 2007 radio campaign in Canada and the U.S. The

group also organized the Bali open letter signed by 100 climate change

skeptics and published in the <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=National_Post&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="National Post (page does not exist)">National Post</a>. <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://www.nrsp.com/releases/release-07.12.14.html">[21]</a><a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://www.nationalpost.com/news/story.html?id=164002">[22]</a>

<h3> Bali open letter to U.N.</h3>

On Dec. 13, 2007, towards the end of the U.N. climate change

conference held in Bali, indonesia, the Financial Post section of the

National Post published an open letter to the UN signed by over a

hundred climate change skeptics under the title "Don't fight, adapt" <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://www.nationalpost.com/news/story.html?id=164002">[23]</a>, along with the list of signatories <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://www.nationalpost.com/news/story.html?id=164004">[24]</a>. The letter casts doubt on the <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Intergovernmental_Panel_on_Climate_Change" title="Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change">Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change</a>

(IPCC) "hypothesis of dangerous human-caused global warming", and

argues that current climate change is within natural variations.

In an accompanying commentary by FP editor Terence Corcoran,

headlined "A new call to reason," Corcoran describes this letter as

having been "signed by more than 100 specialists" and having been

"assembled under Robert M. Carter, a professor at the Marine Geophysical

Laboratory of James Cook University in Australia." <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://www.nationalpost.com/news/story.html?id=164001">[25]</a>. Corcoran did not mention the role of the NRSP, nor the fact that Carter is one of the NRSP's scientific advisors.

In the runup to the Bali conference, an e-mail was circulated by the

NRSP soliciting potential signatories of the open letter. On Dec. 6,

2008, a week before the publication of the open letter, the text of

e-mail was posted at canadafreepress.com, freedominion.ca and

bogotafreeplanet.com. The text has been removed from the Canadian

websites, but remained for some time at bogatafreeplanet.com. <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://www.bogotafreeplanet.com/index.php/article/196">[26]</a> That text is now also missing, but the original web page has been archived at DeepClimate.org <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://deepclimate.files.wordpress.com/2009/04/bali-open-letter-solicit-nrsp-tom-harris-bob-carter1.pdf">[27]</a>

The NRSP e-mail clearly clearly suggests that a deal had already been

struck to have the letter published in the National Post: "It is

intended that this [open letter to the UN] ... will also be published by

a major media outlet towards the end of the current UN Conference on

Climate Change in Bali,Indonesia."

The e-mail also states that the open letter is "co-ordinated" by both

NRSP scientific advisor Carter, and NRSP executive director Harris. In

fact, all five of the NRSP Scientific Advisory Committee are also

signatories, as are most of the NRSP's 25 "allied scientists." <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://nrsp.com/people.html">[28]</a>

After the letter was published in the National Post Dec. 13, the NRSP

sent out a press release on the Canada News Wire. The press release

does not contain a text of the open letter, but instead links to the

National Post online version of the open letter <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://www.newswire.ca/en/releases/archive/December2007/13/c2742.html">[29]</a>.

On January 2, 2008, a SourceWatch contributor sent an e-mail to

National Post editor-in-chief Douglas Kelly, advising him of the above

facts concerning NRSP involvement in the Bali open letter. This e-mail

goes on to state:

"From all this, two reasonable inferences may be drawn:

"a) Terence Corcoran played a key role in an expertly organized and

well funded public relations campaign designed to discredit the work of

the IPCC and indeed the entire UNFCCC process.

"b) Even worse, Corcoran deliberately witheld information about the

role of the NRSP in the open letter, and misled National Post readers

about the true provenance of the letter." <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/images/1/17/National_Post_Email_1.pdf">[30]</a>

The e-mail asserts that Corcoran's behaviour "is a clear breach of

journalistic ethics and damages the credibility of the National Post"

and exhorts Kelly to publish a full correction and to consider

appropriate sanctions against Corcoran including suspension or

dismissal.

To date, there has been no response or correction from the National Post.

<h2> Funding</h2>

According to an October 16, 2006, CanWest News article, journalist

Peter O'Neill asked Harris about who financially backs the NRSP. O'Neill

reported that, according to Harris, "a confidentiality agreement

doesn't allow him to say whether energy companies are funding his [the

NRSP] group." <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://www.canada.com/vancouversun/news/story.html?id=4399cb65-c847-4d63-ac8c-21c045ec90ed&k=50786">[31]</a>

Subsequently, Harris stated that there was no "confidentiality

agreement". He also insisted that "it is normal for non-profit entities

like NRSP to protect the privacy of supporters by not publicizing

contributions." <a rel="nofollow" class="external autonumber" href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Talk:Natural_Resources_Stewardship_Project#Reasons_for_major_edits_in_this_entry">[32]</a>

"This is necessary given the nature of the issues we address and the
