Fact Briefs Summary Page

In April 2024 we announced the (renewed) collaboration between Gigafact and Skeptical Science to create fact briefs, short but credibly sourced summaries that offer “yes/no” answers in response to claims found online. Initially, we published new fact briefs on Saturdays, but switched to Tuesdays earlier this year and while we try to have a new fact brief out each week, we sometimes miss a week due to time constraints and vacations.

      Sorry, I don’t understand why you say this. Can you explain?

      Edit: Maybe it’s the “skeptical” thing. Well this site is about the following

      Explaining climate change science & rebutting global warming misinformation
      Global warming is real and human-caused. It is leading to large-scale climate change. Under the guise of climate “skepticism”, the public is bombarded with misinformation that casts doubt on the reality of human-caused global warming. This website gets skeptical about global warming “skepticism”.

      Our mission is simple: debunk climate misinformation by presenting peer-reviewed science and explaining the techniques of science denial, discourses of climate delay, and climate solutions denial.

        This site is a fucking mess. I had to go to an entirely different site to find the damn list on one page.

        Edit …totally missed op provided that. But I clicked the link before coming to the comments

          I guess, and from the other comment, this might be a design decision. For some reason some people seem to respond better to sites looking like that rather than something more resonable. Nice psyop they got there.
