Apple announced today that they were leaving the U.S. Chamber of Commerce with some pretty strong language:
“Apple supports regulating greenhouse gas emissions, and it is frustrating to find the Chamber at odds with us in this effort.”
The controversy arose from a Chamber of Commerce filing to the EPA in August that called for a trial. The Chamber’s senior VP for the environment even went so far as calling for it “the Scopes monkey trial of the 21st century“. The irony: Scopes lost the monkey trial.
