Tom Borelli: Hastening the End of the World

You have to wonder what happened to Tom Borelli. Hereโ€™s a guy who studied at the New York Medical College โ€“ who was smart enough and hard-working enough to get a PHD in biochemistry โ€“ and now he spends his time trying to hasten โ€ฆ not really the end of the world, but an end to human habitability.

Of course, poisoning humans, rather than saving them, appears to have been Borelliโ€™s life work. He was a Philip Morris operative in the โ€™90s, proudly fighting for the rights of tobacco fans to blow smoke in the face of passing children โ€“ passing anybody, really. Now, as sometimes-DeSmogBlog contributor Kate Sheppard documents here, Borelli is gathering up oil money to finance an attack on any corporation that promotes responsible action on climate change.

Tom, we really hope you have a nice house. Because, according to Dante at least, in your next life, you will get a rather less fabulous choice of neighborhoods: either the Eighth and Ninth circle of hell (Fraud or Treachery).
