  1. The ACT Party’s climate policy is idiotic and deceitful.

    NZ’s pledge to halve emissions by 2030 was already insufficient and then further weakened by accounting tricks, rollbacks, and a relaxed methane target.

    Independent ratings do NOT see NZ as more ambitious than other countries.

    It's blatant climate denial.

  6. My personnal feeling is more like:
    - first they went for climate-scientists #climatedenial
    - then secondly they went for scientists and historians, it was at the beginning of COVID19

    Journalists helped to complete the job

    Then they continued, because it worked: Journalists are NOT scientists

  7. From climate denial to agnotology (the study of how ignorance and doubt are deliberately, culturally, or politically manufactured)

    "It’s worth noting, human-made greenhouse gas emissions are the main driver of rising global average temperatures. However, El Niño can tip these temperatures to record breaking levels." >>

    "Agnotology is the study of deliberate, culturally cultivated ignorance or doubt, typically to sell a product, influence opinion, or win favour, particularly through the publication of inaccurate or misleading scientific data (i.e. disinformation). More generally, the term includes the condition where more knowledge of a subject creates greater uncertainty." >>

  8. US #ClimateDenial group working with European far-right parties

    "The #HeartlandInstitute, which has links to the Trump administration and has drawn on funding from companies including ExxonMobil and wealthy US Republican donors, has seized on a time when rightwing anti-climate action sentiment has been surging, and has set up a new European base in London."

  9. Nigel Farage Helps to Launch U.S. #ClimateDenial Group in UK

    "The #HeartlandInstitute – one of the organisations involved in the radical #Project2025 agenda for a second Donald Trump term – has been at the forefront of denying the scientific evidence for man-made climate change.

    Between the 2019 election and the 2024 campaign, #ReformUK received 92 percent of its funding (£2.3 million) from oil and gas interests, highly polluting industries, and climate deniers."

  10. As Nigel Farage's far-right anti-immigration Reform Party holds its conference in Birmingham, don't forget its anti-climate policies, funded by a powerful network of wealthy supporters.

    Desmog's investigation and interactive map compiles for the first time the political infrastructure supporting Reform’s anti-climate crusade.

  11. @europesays
    This is good framing: "carbon pollution".
    Better than global heating. "Pollution" implies polluters, with addresses.
    It also denies a sense that 'warming' or 'heating' might be okay. No, pollution is a bad thing.

  12. "A thinktank, with a long history of denying #ClimateChange and spreading #misinformation, has mailed thousands of copies of a pseudoscience textbook to US schools.

    However, a lengthy and detailed fact-check found that the book was filled with misleading claims. "
