The Koch brothers are devoted to "free market" solutions, and they've been deeply involved in the libertarian think tank Cato Institute, which received more than $1 million from Koch Industries since 2005, according to Greenpeace.
The company also has several foundations through which it gave $24.9 million to conservative groups between 2005 and 2008, the report says.
Koch Industries, a sprawling private corporation based in Wichita, Kan., and run by two brothers, is the primary sponsor of the "climate denial machine," the environmental group asserts in a 44-page report .
A company spokeswoman said Greenpeace is mischaracterizing Koch's efforts to facilitate "an open and honest airing of all sides" on the climate debate.
no funds from the Kochs have ever been designated for a specific project.
