I don't imagine the solar and wind industries have deeper pockets than coal or oil.
I do wonder if the reason this topic is so political in the US is because of the coal and oil money....
Even the most rabid nutter on the AGW side of the argument doesn't claim more than 50 million dollars being spent by big oil and coal on skeptics. Compare that to more than 650 billion having been funneled into climate pseudoscience supporting AGW.
Most of the money spent by big energy was very early on in the debate before they figured out that they would make money either way and in fact, make more if environmental regulations take hold. You live in europe. Check the profit margins of power companies using fossil fuels before green regulation and after. You will see that they are making more now than before the regulations. The only people being hurt are those who must pay the higher price dictated by the taxes and regulations.
By the way, wind and solar have the pockets of the government at thier disposal. They are so heavily subsidized that the wouldn't exist at all without taxpayer money at their disposal.
Being blind to the truth doesn't alter the truth in the least.
