Last night, we showed the similar techniques are being targeted at the UK government ahead of the COP26 climate conference in Glasgow in November.

We reveal how the energy giants use social media to reach millions of people with messages promoting natural gas as a solution to climate change, despite Facebook's promises to clamp down on the spread of misinformation.
