#ClimateScam? Who's Shaping the Climate Debate?
As the world faces increasingly devastating climate-related disasters, why do so many people believe that the climate crisis is nothing more than a hoax?
In this eye-opening documentary, Jaz, a young mobile hairdresser and social media-savvy member of the TikTok generation, embarks on a journey to uncover the truth. In home visits with leading climate scientists, activists and sceptics, she starts to unravel a web of misinformation and conspiracy theories that should worry us all.
With social media algorithms increasingly funnelling us into polarised views of 'reality', Jaz discovers who stands to gain from the conflict and falsehoods that could undermine our ability to confront the greatest challenge humanity has ever faced.
#ClimateScam? is the latest documentary produced by Cornwall Climate Care. The screening will be followed by a Q&A. Film details: Dir. Bryony Stokes, UK, 2024, 41 minutes. The event starts at 18:00.
