Just in time for our Information Integrity Summit in Brasilia next week, a new study on Brazilian climate disinformation (featuring multiple citations to CAAD and our members' excellent research!) revistacomsoc.pt/index.php/re...
Climate disinformation refers to deceptive or misleading content that misrepre- sents scientific data, including by omission or cherry-picking, in order to erode trust in climate science, climate-focused institutions, experts, and solutions (Climate Action Against Disinformation, 2023b). The spread of climate disinformation is exacerbated by the infrastructural and mediating role of online platforms (d’Andréa, 2020), which con- tinue to shape perceptions and reinforce biases, influencing the public’s understanding of climate change as an established reality (Thapa Magar et al., 2024). This study focuses on how these disinformation dynamics are affecting public discourse in Brazil, a country where online platforms are key sources of information (Newman et al., 2024). Climate disinformation is characterised by the pervasive circulation of environmental topics marked by an overload of posts, contested narratives, inaccurate or false content, the delegitimisation of social movements, and attacks on socio-environmental advocates (Laboratório de Estudos de Internet e Redes Sociais, 2024). This raises critical questions about how these disinformation posts are expressed and experienced — by both com- municators and Brazilian audiences — and their implications for public engagement with climate science.

The 2025 Global Risks Report by the World Economic Forum (those pesky leftists...) continues to point in the same direction: climate change and disinformation hold the top two spots among risks for the next two years and dominate the top five for the next ten. reports.weforum.org/docs/WEF_Glo...

There's a method and endless funding behind it. Good ideas alone aren't enough to fight it.
