“Facebook’s AI slopaganda is the new Cambridge Analytica scandal... they knew users wouldn’t quit scrolling despite the degraded feeds because users couldn’t, as Meta deliberately chose to build an addictive product, as a jury has recently confirmed.” CAAD told @desmog.com

"It doesn’t have to be this way. We’ve made these choices as an industry, and we can make different ones. It won’t be easy, but the moment to act is now." @commscholar.bsky.social concludes in the @columjournreview.bsky.social

“We don’t need to guess why Shell or BP are funding research at Columbia as they are literally telling us. It’s so that Columbia can greenwash their business models and extend their license to operate." Leel Dias told @dharna.bsky.social for @theguardian.com

Disinformation is not just a climate problem. It's a public health one. New piece from @gchalliance.bsky.social shows how misleading narratives delay climate action and put lives at risk, from heat illness to worsening air quality.

If governments and the EU had kept their Paris climate agreement promises to limit global heating to 1.5°C, we wouldn't be in this mess AND the global oil & gas trade would be less of a weapon of war AND people's energy bills would be lower It's time to stop fossil fuels and go 100% renewable

@cleancreatives.bsky.social’s Toxic Accounts report shows how the oil and gas industry has moved from greenwashing to gaslighting. Read it here: buff.ly/zg1h7sG

A new @desmog.com report shows internal records warning that Big Oil knew its operations were wrecking Louisiana’s coast and still worked to delay cleanup and dodge accountability.

In their new piece, @ucs.org explains how a recent court win exposed the Trump administration’s unlawful attacks on climate science. At the heart of it is a secretive Climate Working Group packed with climate contrarians, designed to undermine the EPA’s Endangerment Finding.

BREAKING: The EU Parliament's trade committee has voted in favour of the EU-US trade deal that would lock Europe into imports of US oil and gas Handing more power to Trump and the US fossil fuel industry while breaches of international law spike energy prices is a disaster #ResistTrumpsAgenda

New research from the @granthamlse.bsky.social has found that 7 out of 9 Reform UK-led councils have scrapped their climate targets. The report also notes there is little clarity around claims that “scrapping net zero” will deliver financial savings. www.lse.ac.uk/granthaminst...

New research from @maldita.es platforms and ad networks are still quietly allowing channels that spread disinformation to make money, with almost zero transparency over who profits and why.

New research from @cleancreatives.bsky.social has found BP, Shell, Exxon and Chevron have shifted from “we’re part of the solution” PR to a “you can’t live without us” fossil fuel permanence narrative, deliberately normalising long-term dependence on oil and gas. www.desmog.com/2026/03/17/y...

New from @drilledmedia.bsky.social: a new UN climate resolution on states’ climate obligations is a “credibility test” for the global rule of law. If governments back the ICJ opinion while expanding fossil fuels, their climate promises will ring hollow.

“It feels rushed,” UCS’s @carlonimbus.bsky.social told @nytimes.com regarding the NSF process to dismantle NCAR, one of the world’s leading climate & weather labs. “I question whether the public comment period is of good faith,” added Dr. Martinez, a former postdoctoral researcher at the center.

@thecoalition.bsky.social is suing to stop a new US policy that threatens to deny or revoke visas for researchers who study disinfo and online harms. “This policy is meant to censor researchers into silence and keep the public in the dark, and that’s exactly what it’s doing.”

Shhh. Companies are still quietly pursuing climate action. Not because it looks good in a press release, but because cutting emissions increasingly makes business sense too. Read more in @envdefensefund.bsky.social's new piece

📉 Broadcast TV is shrinking its climate coverage again. New @mmfa.bsky.social analysis finds ABC, CBS, and NBC aired just 8 hours 25 minutes on climate in 2025 — a 35% drop from 2024, and the third straight yearly decline.

⚖️The Supreme Court is weighing a major case on whether oil & gas giants can dodge state climate lawsuits. Justice Alito, one of the nine justices, holds a hefty fossil fuel–stock portfolio yet still hasn’t recused despite the conflict of interest. Learn more via @simonoxfphys.com buff.ly/3ZSdv43

📺️ CBS used to lead TV climate coverage, airing far more climate minutes than ABC or NBC last year. Under Bari Weiss, that edge is already eroding as climate stories shrink and right‑wing talking points seep in. Learn more via @mmfa.bsky.social buff.ly/HVab4Vi
