This is a no agenda less moderated variation of !climate@slrpnk.net. Moderation power is not abused and mods do not suppress ideas in order to control the narrative.

Obvious spam, uncivil posts and misinfo are not immune to intervention, but on-topic civil posts are certain to not be subject to censorship (unlike the excessive interventalism we see in the other climate community).

We haven't been serious about climate change and platformed way too many science-deniers up until now.

I found an interesting article on Climate Obstructionism in my country (Ireland). There are many individuals and sectors to blame, such as agri-food, aviation, haulage, and the media. https://doras.dcu.ie/30072/1/Climate-Obstruction-in-Ireland_Kelly%2C%20McNally%2C%20Stephens_%202024.pdf

I imagine a similar article exists for your country. Feel free to share a link.

There's also an organized and well funded misinformation campaign across all media. Right wing oligarchs.

It's very ironic how many of the sectors pushing for climate obstructionism are among the ones to be most affected by climate change

Absolutely. Farmers and haulers protested in Ireland over fuel prices. Those two groups have spend years opposing alternative energy sources that could have helped them today. Plenty of other examples.

Aviation as well. The more unpredictable the climate becomes, the more complex flying with safety will be
