Rise in Climate Misinformation Targeting Meteorologists.

Meteorologists are facing threats, insults, and slander from conspiracy theorists and climate change deniers who accuse them of faking or fixing the weather. Weather agencies in Spain, Australia, and France have been targeted with false accusations of engineering droughts, doctoring thermometers, and exaggerating global warming. Climate change denial has increased, particularly among far-right supporters who see it as a leftist cause and oppose reforms aimed at curbing its impacts. Experts have debunked these claims, but meteorologists continue to face harassment and intimidation on social media.
