Abstract
-
Climate disinformation is pervasive and undermines public understanding of anthropogenic climate change. This review examines the nature, sources, and impacts of climate disinformation, including its role in delaying mitigation efforts. It discusses effective countermeasures like prebunking, fact-checking, and inoculation theory applications to build resistance against misinformation. Priorities include scaling interventions and addressing organized denial networks.
