Climate Liars Face Crackdown As UN Expert Calls for Penalties

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, reports from New York City on a controversial new proposal by a UN expert advocating for criminal penalties against those who spread climate disinformation. The call also includes banning fossil fuel lobbying and advertising. While such measures would likely clash with U.S. First Amendment rights, especially on social media, McIntyre highlights the growing concern over unchecked climate misinformation online and the difficulty of enforcing accountability in digital spaces.
