Klaus the face of US media campaign

Czech president Vaclav Klaus has become the face of a US media campaign entitled "Global Warming is No Crisis", questioning the impact of global warming on the Earth. A picture of the Czech head of state will appear in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal and the Washington Post next to the picture of the former US vice-president Al Gore. The campaign is organised by the US Heartland Institute, which argues that the debate over global warming has been politicized. It also draws attention to Mr Klaus' speech, which is scheduled to take place in two weeks time at the UN conference on global warming.
