Disinformation campaigns 5/7
- Offer simple explanations for complex problems. Climate change is a complicated issue, and some campaigns falsely claim that it’s all a hoax or the result of natural cycles, making the topic easier to dismiss.
- Repeat the same claims in different forms and languages, making them more familiar and harder to disprove. For instance, the idea that climate change is used as a tool for global control appears in many versions across countries and platforms.
- Exploit moments of crisis, such as floods, heatwaves, or protests. These events are often used as opportunities to spread disinformation, like blaming extreme weather on secret experiments or linking climate policies to social unrest.
