Fossil fuel companies are directly influencing science education in schools across the country, reports @katieworth, by “getting to students through story books, through presentations, through field trips.” She says the issue is “ubiquitous” and “insidious.”
The pleasure was all mine, John. As is always the case, I feel lucky to work with you!
