The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has lost a few large members recently over its less-than-green stance on man-made climate change.

The chamber is against any solution to global warming that could potentially increase the price of energy and recently threatened to sue the EPA if they didn't open up the science of climate change to "public debate".
The chamber lost California based PG&E last week, who also quit because of the chamber's less-than-progressive take on climate change.
