Facebook Inc. is unveiling a dedicated space on its social network to share accurate information about climate change, similar to hubs for Covid-19 and voting, as part of an effort to combat misinformation about the subject. Separately, Facebook said that it’s working to reduce the company’s climate change impact. Facebook has a policy of removing misinformation that poses a direct and immediate threat to users’ offline safety. The company doesn’t remove all misleading information about climate change. The new climate change hub will go live Tuesday in the U.S., Germany, France and the U.K. and will roll out later to other countries.
