The program will begin with a briefing on what peer-reviewed social science has revealed about the climate change disinformation campaign’s structure, funding, tactics, successes in blocking climate policies, and main participants. This will be followed by a discussion of:
- Why despite fact that scientific skepticism is good and should be encouraged, this is not responsible skepticism?
- Why this behavior cannot be excused as an exercise in free speech?
- What damage has been caused by this campaign?
- What kind of malfeasance is this? Tort, crime, fraud?
- How to increase public international awareness of these developments?
- What should be done about it?
