Big Oil Teaching Love Of Oil Inside Public Schools – Redacted Tonight

The “Oil to School” pipeline, the fossil-fuel industry’s effort to pour pro-petrol propaganda into K-12 classrooms, is more widespread and pernicious than previously thought a new investigation shows. Oil can exploit the fact that schools are underfunded, and provide resources and then take the opportunity to write the resources which somehow manage to omit the dangers of climate change and pollution.
