Despite the threat climate change poses to the planet, disinformation about it has gone largely unsanctioned on Twitter. But a secretive global community of about 25 scientists and activists, calling themselves Team Ninja Trollhunters , found a roundabout way to tackle it.
An online archive of the Twitter account shows it branded climate change a scam and ridiculed activists and scientists to thousands of followers.'You can call it trolling, I call it having fun with idiot climate alarmists,' he wrote in one exchange.The account was suspended but the same user appeared to have returned with a different handle, posting 'I'm back' in October 2022, and resumed retweeting material denying the causes of climate change.
