What is "desmogblog"

The DeSmogBlog, founded in January 2006, is a blog that focuses on topics related to global warming. The site describes itself as "the world's number one source for accurate, fact based information regarding Global Warming misinformation campaigns." DeSmogBlog opposes what it describes as "a well-funded and highly organized public relations campaign" that it says is "poisoning" the climate change debate.

Since its inception, the site has received several mentions in the media regarding its involvement in global warming issues. The site was co-founded by James Hoggan, president of a public relations firm based in Vancouver, Canada. The website was recognized in December 2007 with an award by a trade organization for its standards and content.
