General Electric Disavows Chamber of Commerce on Climate

General Electric is the latest company to complain about the policies of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce in opposition to climate change legislation.  “The Chamber does not speak for us on climate legislation, but we are still a member,” said GE spokesman Peter O'Toole.

Melissa Hincha-Ownby reports for Mother Nature Network October 1, 2009.
