New climate negationism

The report summarizes the results of research on anti-climate narratives and their effectiveness in shaping the opinions of Polish women and men on climate change and when and how to counteract it. We look at a new phenomenon of climate negationism that no longer denies the existence of climate change or that human actions are the cause of it. However, it calls into question the pace and the way we should re-act.

In the report we are looking for a new language that will not deepen social polarization and will help move the conversation about Poland’s climate and energy future beyond the political arena towards a serious, reliable discussion based on reliable information.
