    Description

    Gulliver, R. (2024). The Fossil Fuel Façade: Unmasking an Artificially Constructed Reality. M/C Journal, 27(6). https://doi.org/10.5204/mcj.3120

    This article examines how the fossil fuel industry constructs an artificial reality to maintain its dominance, using strategies such as narrative control, greenwashing, lobbying, and leveraging state power to suppress dissent and promote fossil fuel expansion, despite acknowledging climate change. Also child marketing features as a tactic.
