THE IMPACT OF ENVIRONMENTAL DISINFORMATION ON SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
Keywords:
Environmental disinformation, manipulative strategies, environmental risks, public opinion, data falsification, sustainable development, climate skepticism.Abstract
As environmental challenges intensify, environmental disinformation has become a major obstacle to the implementation of sustainable development policies. Disinformation campaigns undermine trust in scientific data, polarize public opinion, and hinder the adoption of necessary environmental measures. As a result, the implementation of climate initiatives slows down, posing risks to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) within the established timeframe.References
