freebeacon.com Newly uncovered documents lay out a highly organized influence scheme that targets judges who are overseeing major environmental cases
A dark money group of left-wing environmental activists has been quietly “training” judges overseeing climate-related lawsuits, hosting them at multi-day, all-expenses-paid seminars in locales like Napa Valley and Palm Beach. Judges who attend these luxury retreats—where they are subject to indoctrination—are not required to report them in ethics disclosures.
At the “Judicial Leaders in Climate Science” seminars, representatives of the activist group, the Climate Judiciary Project, present to the judges contested claims on climate and other environmental issues as settled, scientific fact. Judges who attend the seminars are also expected to make a year-long commitment to participate in CJP events, take online classes, and, perhaps most importantly, help identify and recruit other judges who have influence over environmental law. The secretive program is designed to function like a judicial Tupperware party, with an ever widening circle of judges recruited to normalize controversial and often unsubstantiated climate theories.
A trove of previously unseen documents obtained by the Washington Free Beacon, including dozens of internal emails, provides a new window into the otherwise opaque operations of the CJP, a subsidiary of the nonprofit Environmental Law Institute, which claims to be “nonpartisan” but has deep ties to the climate movement’s far left.
