For decades, misinformation campaigns have effectively muddied the waters when it comes to Americans understanding the truth about climate change. We're joined this week by the creator and host of the Drilled podcast, Amy Westervelt, to talk about the origins of climate misinformation and how this still persists today. Also, our climate correspondent, Chad The Bird, delivers an audio essay on ExxonMobil. It's a great first show!
