BERWYN Thanks Bob Berwyn ░░░░░░░░ Inside Climate News We ░░░░░░░░ reported on this And ░░░░░░░░ question is what do ░░░░░░░░ do when climate misinformation ░░░░░░░░ from the very top ░░░░░░░░ elected political officials like ░░░░░░░░ of major economies How ░░░░░░░░ you institutionally directly counteract ░░░░░░░░ Is there a way ░░░░░░░░ know you ve mentioned ░░░░░░░░ various tools that you ░░░░░░░░ use but I m ░░░░░░░░ know obviously really concerned ░░░░░░░░ what happens when you ░░░░░░░░ you start having well ░░░░░░░░ s use the past ░░░░░░░░ you know the past ░░░░░░░░ of Brazil let s ░░░░░░░░ Have you thought about ░░░░░░░░ and do you have ░░░░░░░░ ideas yeah tools for ░░░░░░░░ that institutionally Not just ░░░░░░░░ good journalism but you ░░░░░░░░ at some some foundational ░░░░░░░░ Thank you MURRAY I ░░░░░░░░ think one of the ░░░░░░░░ problems is that we ░░░░░░░░ relying on private platforms ░░░░░░░░ make these decisions Private ░░░░░░░░ that are you know ░░░░░░░░ bottom line is is ░░░░░░░░ profit It s a ░░░░░░░░ of that It s ░░░░░░░░ question therefore of attention ░░░░░░░░ so when they re ░░░░░░░░ at decisions of enforcement ░░░░░░░░ terms that they ve ░░░░░░░░ out we re seeing ░░░░░░░░ those are often not ░░░░░░░░ equally dependent on who ░░░░░░░░ actors are So I ░░░░░░░░ looking to how we ░░░░░░░░ how we can change ░░░░░░░░ that approach so not ░░░░░░░░ just depending upon a ░░░░░░░░ platform to be making ░░░░░░░░ decisions.”
