The First Climate Change Publication
Achilles tells Emma about the world's first climate change publication, which came from Swedish scientist Svante Arrhenius in 1896. But how did the biases of scientists like Arrhenius warp the study?

Also, how is Greta Thunberg tied into a multi-generational climate change conspiracy theory?
