Big Oil and Climate Disinformation

It is said that Big Oil has entered its “Big Tobacco” phase, meaning that it needs to go to ever more obscene lengths to sew doubt into the public’s mind re: the damage its products cause.

It seems that the last 12 months have been quite forceful in erasing much of the doubt that may have existed about the validity of climate science, insofar as most of us have directly experienced the effects of wildfires, droughts, and floods.

Still, the key to battles like the one the oil companies are fighting is constancy.  Be like Trump, never admit wrong, never stop attacking the enemy, and never give up.
