Who’s responsible for the climate change denial?

Based on the chart, there are a lot of parties to point the finger at for the ignorance surrounding climate change and important environmental issues.

But the biggest impact of climate change denial inarguably comes from the “Echo Chamber”, including the media, politicians, and blogs.
