We live in a world full of information. Every day, we read headlines, scroll through posts, and hear claims about urgent topics—especially climate change. But how can we tell what’s true, what’s misleading, and what’s completely false?
This module will guide you through the essentials of evaluating information. You’ll learn how to recognise different types of information, understand where it comes from, and apply simple tools and strategies to judge its credibility. These skills are especially important when it comes to climate change, where disinformation is used to spread doubt, delay action, or influence public opinion.
By the end of this module, you’ll be better equipped to assess the reliability of what you read, spot common disinformation tactics, and make informed decisions based on credible sources.
