Read Crichton's 'State of Fear': folks flying around the world in their private jet to get paid $100,000 to tell people they need to reduce their carbon footprint.

Crichton said he was afraid the book could get him killed. A character in it discovers connectionbs between eco terrorists, non-profits, law firms all being funded by rich Hollywood types that are creating "catastrophes" to make the danger of climate change seem more imminent.

He died 3 years later of lymphoma... which if you search scholar.google.com you'll see is quite easily induced.

From Michael's website: "I didn’t want to write it. I decided I wouldn’t write it. I had breakfast with a friend of mine who I hadn’t seen in 30 years and I told them my dilemma and he said no, you have to write it. I said I might get killed for this. He said, no, you have to write it. I would like to be able to say that as a result of that conversation I decided to write it. I didn’t. I went home and I thought, you know, I’m not writing this. It doesn’t matter. Keep my opinion to myself. I started to work on something else and I felt like a coward and I thought what are you going to do? You have looked at the data and you really believe that it’s in effect but not something that we as human beings should be worrying about. […] It’s low on the totem pole. We ought to be taking care of disease. We ought to be taking care of world hunger. We ought to be taking care of a lot of things before we do this." www.michaelcrichton.com/state-of-fear/
