The previously unknown Coalition for Responsible Regulation Inc (CRR)
A secretive group linked to a leading European chemical company has joined the campaign to defeat Barack Obama's green agenda, taking the fight beyond the traditional players – the big oil and coal firms – the Guardian has learned.

But some of those launching legal challenges against the EPA have appeared as if from nowhere – such as the CRR.

Court documents filed in Texas identify Richard Hogan, chief executive of Solvay's wholly owned US subsidiary, as one of three directors of the CRR, the lead petitioner on the legal challenge to the EPA's authority to act on greenhouse gas emissions. The filings give Solvay's Houston office as Hogan's address. The coalition was apparently created to block Obama's efforts to deal with climate change.
