Technicall­y Speaking: Pinterest banning climate misinforma­tion from posts and ads

-

Pinterest said it will prohibit ads and posts that feature climate misinforma­tion in its latest attempt to block harmful content on its virtual pinboard service. The ban includes any content that denies the existence or impacts of climate change, or denies that humans influence global warming and that the phenomenon is supported by scientific consensus. Inaccurate posts about natural disasters and extreme weather events will also be removed, as will misreprese­ntations of scientific data through omission or cherry-picking meant to erode trust in climate science.
