Climate Denial Campaigns So Successful They’re Now in Court

from Drilled · host Pushkin Industries

Fewer Americans believe in the need to act on climate change than did 30 years ago, despite surmountable evidence. Industry campaigns were so successful they've now landed oil companies in court, facing multiple suits attempting to hold them accountable for the damages inflicted by unchecked climate change.
