#ClimateDisinformation #Disinfo #EMIFund

๐Ÿšจ #HEAT shows climate disinfo is systemic โ€“ but EU regulation hasnโ€™t caught up.

#EMIFund

In the #Netherlands, climate disinformation exploited public frustration around nitrogen policies, fuelling fears of government overreach, land grabs, and a loss of national sovereignty.

#HEAT reveals how conspiratorial narratives tapped into post-pandemic anxieties, reframing climate action as authoritarian and illegitimate.

๐Ÿ“Œ The Netherlands is one chapter in a wider analysis โ€“ HEAT also covers France and Germany.

In #France, climate disinfo links green policy to โ€œdeep stateโ€ & โ€œGreat Resetโ€ plots. #HEAT shows how conspiracies reframe climate action as a threat to freedom โ€” tapping into rural frustration & Yellow Vest anger.

๐Ÿ“Œ France is only part of the picture โ€” Germany & the Netherlands also show similar tactics.
