About This Episode

Transcript

Climate obstruction isn’t just something the fossil fuel industry does, but they’ve certainly spearheaded and masterminded a lot of efforts. In this ep, an academic (Kristoffer Ekberg, University of Lund), a nonprofit researcher (Kert Davies, Center for Climate Integrity), and a journalist (Geoff Dembicki, DeSmog) walk us through what we know so far about those efforts.
