“When you’re talking about climate change, facts alone may not be enough to make a compelling argument… [Arunima] Krishna studies the spread of climate science disinformation, among other topics — and after conducting a recent survey, she found that 40% of respondents were ‘disinformation receptive,’ meaning they’d already accepted some type of falsehood about climate change. What’s more, she says, disinformation might be stifling conversation on the important topic: If you don’t believe in climate change or doubt humans’ role in accelerating it, you’re less likely to want to discuss it, according to Krishna’s survey.” |
