==Background==
The Lavoisier Group is an Australian based group set up in the 1990s. It is reported that their aim is to question and undermine greenhouse science and the Kyoto Protocol. The group is said to be concerned about the cost of the Kyoto Protocol to Australia's resource-intensive economy<ref>Melissa Fyfe (2004) [http://www.theage.com.au/news/Science/The-global-warming-sceptics/2004/11/26/1101219743320.html ‘The global warming sceptics’] ‘’The Age’’. 27th November 2004 . Accessed 22nd January 2009</ref>.

In 2004, the groups Secretary, [[Ray Evans]], described 'the 90-odd Lavoisier members as a "dad's army" of mostly retired engineers and scientists from the mining, manufacturing and construction industries'<ref>Melissa Fyfe (2004) [http://www.theage.com.au/news/Science/The-global-warming-sceptics/2004/11/26/1101219743320.html ‘The global warming sceptics’] ‘’The Age’’. 27th November 2004 . Accessed 22nd January 2009</ref>..

Evans describes himself as a "Genesis 1:28 man", which states that "God said to them 'Be fruitful and become many and fill the Earth and subdue it, and have in subjection the fish of the seas and the flying creatures of the heavens and every living creature that is moving upon the Earth"<ref>Melissa Fyfe (2004) [http://www.theage.com.au/news/Science/The-global-warming-sceptics/2004/11/26/1101219743320.html ‘The global warming sceptics’] ‘’The Age’’. 27th November 2004 . Accessed 22nd January 2009</ref>..

According to Evans, the scientific community concerned with the human impact of climate change are 'global-warming doomsayers', who are 'anti-development'. The report continues by stating Evans as saying that 'Moreover, they stem from an environmentalism that has taken the place of Christianity, particularly in Europe. "To put it in its bluntest terms, when you don't believe in God you don't believe in nothing. You believe in whatever is the fashion of the day, and environmentalism has scooped the pool."'<ref>Melissa Fyfe (2004) [http://www.theage.com.au/news/Science/The-global-warming-sceptics/2004/11/26/1101219743320.html ‘The global warming sceptics’] ‘’The Age’’. 27th November 2004 .
