Twitter Says Ads That 'Contradict the Scientific Consensus on Climate Change Are Prohibited' - Even Though There Is No Consensus!

Twitter announced on Earth Day that decided to remove any ads on the platform that contain so-called “misinformation” about climate change.

The Washington Post reported that the platform said the removed ads “contradict the scientific consensus on climate change.”

“We recognize that misleading information about climate change can undermine efforts to protect the planet,” Twitter said of the decision. “In the coming months, we’ll have more to share on our work to add reliable, authoritative context to the climate conversations happening on Twitter.”

The new policy only applies to monetized ads.
