Have you got climate zombies? We debunk the myths that refuse to die

Have you got climate zombies?

Climate denial has been funded by industry and lobby groups.

They might pop up in your social media feed, or manifest in comments under climate change news online. They might even appear at your Christmas lunch. And they're rife in some media outlets — they often come out after dark.

They're the cases against climate science that were buried years ago, yet somehow, refuse to die.

"It's the Milankovitch cycles", "CO2 is good for plants anyway", "What have the scientists ever done for us?"

You might have even been infected yourself. It's no surprise really, a multi-billion dollar campaign funded by the likes of Donors Trust, Donors Capital Fund, Koch-affiliated foundations, and parts of the fossil fuel industry has been animating these damned corpses since the '80s.

So consider this your own handy guide for killing the undead. Or at least a shield for deflecting their relentless pursuit of brains.

Good luck out there.
