What Will it Take to Destroy the Climate Narrative? - In The Tank #418

The Heartland Institute's Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, Chris Talgo are joined by Linnea Lueken for episode 418 of the In The Tank Podcast. It seems like every day there is a new story that blows a hole in the climate narrative - a new study showing the impracticality of a 100% renewable grid, or an electric vehicle battery plant that requires coal power to function. We are told constantly by the media, politicians, and now even the Pope that we must change our lifestyle in an effort to combat climate change. Yet, most people don't care. These facts leave the ITT crew wondering: What would it take to finally destroy the climate narrative?
