UN chief calls for 'fight' against climate disinformation
France24 ^ | October 22, 2025

Posted on 10/22/2025 5:56:17 AM PDT by Oldeconomybuyer

Geneva (AFP) โ€“ UN chief Antonio Guterres on Wednesday called for a fightback against climate disinformation ahead of next month's COP30 summit after US President Donald Trump branded climate change the "greatest con job ever".

Guterres issued a robust defence of "clear-eyed" climate science and data, without which, he said, the world would never have understood the emergence of the "dangerous and existential threat of climate change".

"We must fight mis- and disinformation, online harassment, and greenwashing," Guterres said at the UN's World Meteorological Organization (WMO) weather and climate agency.

"Scientists and researchers should never fear telling the truth."

The WMO is marking its 75 anniversary this year, and is leading the charge for all countries to be covered by extreme weather early warning systems by 2027.

"Global warming is pushing our planet to the brink," said Guterres.

"Every one of the last 10 years has been the hottest in history. Ocean heat is breaking records while decimating ecosystems. And no country is safe from fires, floods, storms and heatwaves.

"As always, the poorest and most vulnerable countries pay the highest price -- particularly small island developing states and the least developed countries."

Some needs to go tonthe UN and read all the failed IPCC report doom predictions they have spewed for decades. Maybe Trump will do it someday. That would be epic.

“disinformation/misinformation”


It’s their new paradigm to keep gaslighting leftist holdouts and defend their positions.

Anything which conflicts with their views.

ANYTHING.

The UN is our enemy.

It should be expelled from the country.

Is that the summit where they cut down thousands of acres of rainforest to make a highway, and are using ships as hotels? Bet those ships are exempt from any 'carbon tax'.

If Antonio Guterres were wise, he'd be more careful about what he's calling for, but, of course, if he were wise he wouldn't be UN chief Antonio Guterres in the first place.

We definitely need to fight climate disinformation, and that's exactly what President Trump is doing when he brands "climate change" as the "greatest con job ever." It is.

A successful fightback against climate disinformation will silence Guterres and his ilk, but nothing is going to make them wise, them or the fools who allow themselves to be conned.

Americans need to “fight” to kick the UN out of our country.

Gee. Maybe we should have Google, Facebook, Twitter and TikTok ban anyone who questions climate change. Better yet, maybe they should be de-banked and arrested.

I would cut every last program for the UN.

The only functional “real” purpose I see in them is to address another nation, as a forum.

You wouldn't want anybody contradicting the global warming predictive science of 'soothsaying'.

Check out this (lack of) snow on Mount Kilimanjaro that Al Gore said would be gone by 2016... Looks like it's still there Al... Just one of hundreds of incorrect soothsaying predictions by these global warming lunatics.

Every one of those โ€œten hottest yearsโ€ was not an actual measurement, only computer simulations.

Anything that attributes “climate change” to anthropogenic causes is by definition “misinformation” and even borders on “disinformation”.

Carbon dioxide is NOT a “cause agent” in any changes in the climate, from whatever source. Particulate matter suspended in the atmosphere, like from volcanic eruptions, is much more a factor, and far beyond the power of any known human endeavor to be controlled.
