Climate Denial

Climate denial refers to skepticism or rejection of the scientific consensus on climate change, primarily the belief that human activities significantly contribute to global warming. Some deny the existence of climate change altogether, while others may acknowledge it but downplay its severity or dismiss the role of human influence. This phenomenon can stem from various factors, including political beliefs, economic interests, or misinformation. It can hinder efforts to address climate issues, as public discourse and policy-making are influenced by these differing views on the reality and urgency of climate change.
