This 2000 Global Climate Coalition (GCC) press release, preserved on the Internet Archive, shows the GCC encouraging voluntary emissions reduction regimes and emphasizing climate change science discrepancies that were later debunked. The industry-funded GCC opposed greenhouse gas regulations through direct engagement and collaboration with affiliated climate deniers from 1989 to 2002. Its membership spanned across the automotive, utility, manufacturing, petroleum, and mining industries.
