Combatting Climate Misinformation.jpeg

Since passage of the IRA Act in 2022, significant progress has been made to address the climate crisis. However, fossil fuel interests and climate deniers have intensified their efforts to hinder adoption of effective climate solutions by households and businesses and to delay and derail local legislative efforts even in the more progressive states such as New York and California. The recent collapse of the IRA is another example of policy reversals.From auto manufacturers attributing the slowdown in new EV purchases to consumer markets instead of their own delays in introducing lower-cost EVs, to political leaders avoiding climate initiatives during an election year, 2024 saw a surge in disinformation on social media and the mainstream news. This has made it more challenging to effectively communicate how the average citizen can reduce their carbon footprint.With the change in federal leadership, the current climate crisis has become increasingly urgent. We will summarize the top actions individuals can take to decrease their carbon footprint.Learn to equip yourself with the latest information to combat climate denial! Zoom registration details will be posted on the home page of this website closer to the event.​
