Climate Change Denial — A Multi-million Dollar Industry

A new report from The Guardian has traced a total of $125 million dollars that has been funneled to climate change denying think tanks in just the last 3 years. This money is being used to create fake studies, manufacture talking points, and to promote the industry’s favorite climate change denying talking heads. But the question is whether or not any of this money has an effect on the climate change discussion.

Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this with Brendan DeMelle, managing editor and executive director of DeSmogBlog.com
