Most energy companies now acknowledge that burning fossil fuels is warming the planet. And yet many continue to fund disinformation about industrys role in climate change and its harm to human health.

In the latest example, documents and recordings reviewed by HuffPost show that the Independent Petroleum Association of America has spent almost $2 million a year for the last two years on Energy In Depth, a research, education and public outreach campaign that regularly attacks scientists whose research is critical of industry. The campaign has received financial backing from 14 different oil and gas companies including Shell, Occidental Petroleum, BP, Chevron and Halliburton.

These revelations come as world leaders adjourn the COP25 in Madrid, an international summit held to discuss detailed ways to address the rapidly warming planet. In a recent review, scientists writing for The Lancet stated that climate change will affect the health of every child born today as populations face weather extremes, food and water insecurity and changing patterns of infectious disease. The only solution is to get rid of fossil fuels in power production, industry and transportation, Petteri Taalas, secretary-general of the World Meteorological Organization, said upon releasing the report.
