Dark Money Group Backed by DiCaprio's Foundation Funded Law Firm Suing Oil Companies, Media Says_我的网站

A |     A dark money group called the Resources Legacy Fund (RLF) that was awarded grant money by the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation provided funds to a law firm linked to “climate nuisance lawsuits” across the United States, Fox News reports, citing findings made by the watchdog group Government Accountability & Oversight (GAO).,According to the media outlet, GAO managed to obtain emails that were exchanged between major philanthropist Dan Emmett and Ann Carlson, a climate professor at UCLA, in 2017 when they were working with a law firm called Sher Edling to raise money for the firm’s efforts to sue oil companies on behalf of state and local governments.,In their correspondence, Emmett and Carlson mention how Sher Edling’s director of strategic client relationships Chuck Savitt received help from Terry Tamminen in the latter’s capacity (at the time) as CEO of the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation.,"Chuck Savitt who is heading this new organization behind the lawsuits has been seeking our support," Emmett wrote in one of the emails to Carlson. "Terry Tamminen in his new role with the DiCaprio Foundation has been a key supporter.”,He also forwarded a message to Carlson that Savitt had sent him a few days prior.,"Wanted to let you know that we filed the first three lawsuits supported by the Collective Action Fund on Monday," Savitt wrote in the missive. "These precedent setting cases call on 37 of the world's leading fossil fuel companies to take responsibility for the devastating damage sea level rise - caused by their greenhouse gas emissions - is having on coastal communities.",Con Artists Swindle Woman Out of Over $800,000 via 'Leonardo DiCaprio & Scientology' Scheme12 May, 18:57 GMT,As the media outlet points out, the Collective Action Fund for Accountability, Resilience and Adaptation was managed at the time by the RLF, and two months before the aforementioned correspondence was exchanged, the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation announced that they would contribute some $20 million in grants to various climate and conservation causes, with one of the recipients of those grants being the RLF.,The said grant was awarded to the dark money group "to support precedent-setting legal actions to hold major corporations in the fossil fuel industry liable," Fox notes, adding that the announcement has since been deleted (although it remains archived).,Between 2017 and 2020, the RLF reportedly provided more than $5.2 million to Sher Edling, with the dark money group’s spokesman Mark Kleinman telling Fox that they had provided grants to the firm so the latter would “pursue charitable activities to hold fossil fuel companies accountable for the accuracy of information they had disseminated to consumers and the public about the role their products played in causing climate change.",Since 2017, Sher Edling has sued major oil companies on behalf of both state and local governments in the United States, alleging that the said companies have "deceived the public about climate change," with most of these lawsuits currently being ongoing, the media outlet adds.。    राज्य ब्यूरो, चंडीगढ़। कांग्रेस विधायक गीता भुक्कल ने बुधवार को विधानसभा में कहा कि झज्जर का दयानंद स्टेडियम बदतर हालात में है। यहां से मनु भाकर जैसे खिलाड़ी निकले हैं। सदन में हमने पहले भी स्टेडियम बनाने की मांग की थी, लेकिन इस पर अभी तक कोई काम नहीं हुआ है।,शून्यकाल में अपने विधानसभा क्षेत्र के मुद्दे उठाते हुए उन्होंने कहा कि पोस्ट ग्रेजुएट नेहरू कालेज की बिल्डिंग बहुत पुरानी हो चुकी है। इसका हास्टल बहुत खराब है। मेरी सरकार से मांग है कि क्षेत्र की समस्याओं को तुरंत ठीक किया जाए। वहीं, शून्यकाल से पहले भुक्कल ने मुख्यमंत्री नायब सिंह सैनी द्वारा सदन में एक दिन पहले की गई विवादास्पद टिप्पणी का मुद्दा पुरजोर तरीके से उठाया। तब पूर्व मुख्यमंत्री भूपेंद्र सिंह हुड्डा सदन में मौजूद नहीं थे।,नारेबाजी करते कांग्रेस विधायकों के साथ विधानसभा अध्यक्ष के आसन के सामने पहुंची गीता भुक्कल ने कहा कि सरकार बताए कि आखिर शैतान शब्द का इस्तेमाल किसने किया है। इसी दौरान पार्टी के एक वरिष्ठ विधायक ने उन्हें अपनी सीट की तरफ लौटने का इशारा किया, लेकिन इससे बेपरवाह भुक्कल अपने मुद्दे पर जमी रहीं, जिसके बाद मामला तूल पकड़ गया। इसी दौरान पूर्व मुख्यमंत्री भूपेंद्र सिंह हुड्डा भी सदन में पहुंच गए तो पूर्व शिक्षा मंत्री ने उन्हें मामले से अवगत कराया।,इसके बाद कांग्रेस विधायकों और सत्ता पक्ष के बीच चले आरोप-प्रत्यारोपों में ऐसा हंगामा हुआ कि विधानसभा अध्यक्ष हरविन्द्र कल्याण को कहना पड़ा कि विवादित शब्दों को सदन की कार्यवाही से निकाल दिया जाएगा। इसके बाद ही मामला शांत हुआ।。
