I just read http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-tege/eotopicg81.pdf

And according to the IRS, they have the right to go 501(c)(4)

IRC 501(c)(4) provides, in part, for the exemption from federal income
taxation of civic leagues or organizations not organized for profit but operated
exclusively for the promotion of social welfare.1
Section 1.501(c)(4)-1(a)(2)(i) of
the Income Tax Regulations states that an organization will be considered to be
operated exclusively for social welfare purposes if it is primarily engaged in
promoting in some way the common good and general welfare of the people of the
community, i.e. primarily for the purpose of bringing about civic betterments and
social improvements

So they are operating within the rules as such. change the law , fine, but don't let the government target just one party

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
