    Which inaccurate doomer myths? Because every time I hear this, it’s “well, I’m sure that’ll be ni-aaaaaaand it’s climate denialism”

      It’s certainly a nice idea for a community, but there’s already content in there that can be used to spread/reinforce climate change denial.

      For example, this chart showing the decline of air pollution deaths: https://reddthat.com/post/16771065. That’s exactly the kind of thing that right wingers point to and scream “See? Fewer people are dying, the planet is fine!” Again, the intent is admirable, but this kind of content is ripe for repackaging as anti-climate propaganda. It’s going to do more harm than good if you collect that kind of messaging all in one place like this.
