#ClimateScam: denialism claims flooding Twitter
Twitter has proved a cherished forum for climate scientists to share research, as well as for activists seeking to rally action to halt oil pipelines or decry politicians’ failure to cut pollution. But many are now fleeing Twitter due to a surge in climate misinformation, spam and even threats that have upended their relationship with the platform.
Scientists and advocates have told the Guardian they have become unnerved by a recent resurgence of debunked climate change denialist talking points and memes on Twitter, with the term #ClimateScam now regularly the first result that appears when “climate” is searched on the site.

It's time to make Twitter more reliable as it's one of the biggest source of information that people rely on

It's really sad to see that even when we are at the tipping point of climate change and environmental degradation we still have deniers ... It's a shame

@andreas_kohler I have a Mastodon account as well - @GeraldKutney@noc.social - but the fight against climate denialism is still in Twitter - leaving just makes it easier for the deniers.
