“The threat of disinformation is bigger than climate change” 

Geopolitical expert Francois Gemenne says the US withdrawal from international cooperation is bad news for the fight against climate change but urges companies to keep investing in the transition to a low-carbon economy.

In this latest episode of MCB Talk, this member of the IPCC comments on current affairs, including the impact of recent US Executive orders on the world, whilst warning that disinformation is currently the biggest threat we face. He also urges African countries to continue to invest in renewable energies even as they continue to need fossil fuels to meet their development needs.
