Great video, in which Dave Borlace uses @doctorvive.bsky.social's excellent book on the language of #climate politics to debunk the Trump administration's talking points...

Ik hoorde een Europarlementariër zeggen: “Natural gas is the present and natural gas will be the future.” Ik was in verwarring: we zouden toch stoppen met fossiele brandstoffen?

Ik maakte er een radiodocu over voor @argosonderzoekt.bsky.social. Nu in je podcastapp! argos.vpro.nl/artikelen/ge...

In this week's episode, we dig into the psychology of mis/disinformation and why it works so well. We thought we knew a lot about disinformation, and then we talked to these experts!

Exxon is the most active lobbyist against the CSDDD, racking up more meetings with policymakers focused on the directive than any other company or trade association.

In @trouw.nl this week: 10 years after the Paris Agreement, we know that the climate crisis is a disinformation crisis. Read @marioveen.bsky.social's take on how to counter this dangerous driver of our continued lack of action on the climate crisis!

'Willen we de trend van afbrokkelend klimaatbewustzijn en -beleid doorbreken, dan wordt het tijd de klimaatontkenner in ons allen te leren kennen.'

@cssn.org people have a look.

Said it before, will probably die saying it, we are never going to solve the climate disinfo problem if we don't fix media. As @maxboykoff.bsky.social notes here, the public by and large learns about climate change via the media, so if the media trades in false equivalence, it's damaging!

"Industry delegates outnumbered climate experts by 14 to one at the recent “environmental protection” meeting of the UN International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), ...The ICAO is the forum where nations agree the rules governing international aviation."

🧵 about the attack on social science research by @cssn.org founder @timmonsroberts.bsky.social and his brilliant students at Brown University that exposed climate denial/obstruction networks. And (as @veenadubal.bsky.social put it), why universities should not negotiate with anti-science forces!

So proud of this collaboration led by @cssn.org

What's beyond vested interests? Can we use the concept of countermovemement in more ways to understand climate obstruction? @kvowles.bsky.social and I think with a common but perhaps underused concept to understand reactionary climate politics in Sweden. @cssn.org

If you're a @drilledmedia.bsky.social listener you know I think social scientists are key sources if we want to understand why governments haven't acted on climate. So imagine my nerd delight to get my hands on an incredible new batch of research on climate obstruction. drilled.media/podcasts/dri...

The Conservative party in Canada has really adversely impacted our country's carbon reduction targets, with their obstruction, disinformation campaigns, & ignoring the science & claiming climate change isn't real.

Why hasn't there been more climate progress?

"The massive, decades-long campaign of denial and obstruction from the fossil fuel industry is the major part of it," Al Gore explains.

"It would be a mistake, in my view, to underestimate how significant their role has been."

Welp, didn't actually plan on putting out our @drilledmedia.bsky.social episode on the collision between far-right acclerationism, populism and climate obstruction on the day of the Rapture, but here we are. drilled.media/podcasts/dri...
