"COP26: The Truth Behind The New Climate Change Denial" [1]

"As world leaders met at the COP26 summit to debate how to tackle climate change, misleading claims and falsehoods about the climate spiralled on social media.

We've looked at some of the most viral claims of the past year, and what the evidence really says."
