This episode features a conversation with climate disinformation specialist, Jennie King. Recorded at the end of September 2022.
Jennie is Head of Civic Action and Education at the Institute for Strategic Dialogue, or ISD, leading efforts to translate their digital research into frontline programming and response. She co-authored the current ‘Be Internet Citizens’ curriculum, formally accredited for UK schools, and provides regular briefings for UK government departments and regulators, UNESCO, and parallel European and US bodies on systemic approaches to media literacy.
Jennie also oversees ISD’s portfolio on Climate Mis- and Disinformation, supporting a coalition of over 30 organisations worldwide to identify, analyse and counter the related harms. This includes running the first ever COP ‘War Room’ monitoring disinformation threats at the COP26 summit, which is running again at COP27, in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt.
In June 2022, Jennie launched the largest ever report on this issue - titled, ‘Deny, Deceive, Delay: Documenting and Responding to Climate Disinformation at COP26 and Beyond’ - on behalf of the Climate Action Against Disinformation coalition.
I was thrilled that she took the time to talk to me about climate disinformation, the role of social media in spreading it, and, amongst other things, some concrete ways that we can make a difference in the information war.
