The George C. Marshall Institute (GMI) was a nonprofit conservative think tank in the United States. It was established in 1984 with a focus on science and public policy issues and had an initial focus in defense policy. Starting in the late 1980s, the institute advocated for views in line with environmental skepticism, most notably climate change denial. The think tank received extensive financial support from the fossil fuel industry. Though the institute officially closed in 2015, the climate-denialist CO2 Coalition is viewed as its immediate successor.

Marshall Institute war ein 1984 gegründeter, von Industrieunternehmen finanzierter konservativer Think Tank, der ursprünglich zur Verteidigung der umstrittenen SDI-Rüstungsprojektes gegründet wurde. Mit dem Zusammenbruch der Sowjetunion ab Ende der 1980er Jahre änderte das GMI seine Mission und fokussierte sich auf den Kampf gegen die Einführung von Umweltschutzpolitiken und insbesondere Klimaschutzmaßnahmen. Anschließend bestritt es den wissenschaftlichen Forschungsstand zum Ozonloch, dem Sauren Regen und zur globalen Erwärmung und wurde zu einer der zentralen Akteure der Klimawandelleugnerszene.
