Climate Change News: Its been 15 years since researchers last ran the numbers on how climate denial is disseminated in public discourse. A study recently published in the journal Global Environmental Change fills the gap, taking a fine tooth-comb to misinformation pumped out by conservative think tanks from 1998 to 2013.

That's good, you might think, because Norway's electricity...
