Episode description

Researchers in the U.K. wanted to find just how much climate disinformation on Twitter is out there. They looked at the platform's data over seven years and found it worsened yearly. Another researcher in the U.K. is part of an international group that collaborates on tracking disinformation on climate change in real-time. They tracked disinformation at COP26 and COP27, the international conference dealing with the climate crisis. Wait until you hear what they found.
