Mainstream TV and radio remain some of the most influential sources of information, yet they increasingly host misleading claims about climate science and climate policy.
In this webinar, Louna Wemaere (QuotaClimat) presents new comparative findings from France and Brazil, revealing how broadcasters shape public perception through misinformation on renewables, electric vehicles, energy prices, deforestation and climate measures. This webinar will help to understand how climate falsehoods reach millions, why they matter for democracy, and what can be done to counter them.
