for reference and context, according to sourcewatch:
The Heartland Institute, according to the Institute's web site, is a
nonprofit organization "to discover and promote free-market solutions
to social and economic problems".[1] Heartland campaigns against what
it refers to as "junk science"; supports "common-sense
environmentalism", such as opposition to the the Kyoto protocol aimed
at countering global warming and promoting genetically engineered
crops and products; it supports the privatization of public services;
it opposes tobacco control measure such as tobacco tax increases and
denies the health effects of second-hand smoke; it supports the
introduction of school vouchers;, and it promotes the deregulation of
health care insurance. Heartland also hosts PolicyBot, which it refers
to as the "Internet's most extensive clearing-house for the work of
free-market think tanks". The database contains 22,000 documents from
350 U.S. right-wing think tanks and advocacy groups.[2]
In March 2008 the Heartland Institute hosted what was referred to as
The 2008 International Conference on Climate Change.[3]
