Climate Depot Founder Marc Morano said Thursday that the single most alarming outcome of a COP30 climate summit in Brazil was its plans for crushing free speech.
While he was appearing on Fox News, Morano was asked by host Laura Ingraham on Thursday what was the “craziest thing” out of the summit. Morano immediately highlighted the United Nations Global Initiative for Information Integrity on Climate Change declaration, which ten nations signed onto last week.
Morano described the declaration as part of the UN’s effort to “have a massive global censorship regime.” Indeed, the Media Research Center exposed the declaration’s sinister threat to free speech on Nov. 14.
“The UN is on record as saying they own the science, and they want to partner with Google to make sure everyone only gets search returns,” Morano added. “And yesterday, they announced a big initiative to go after climate denialism and misinformation online, and that they’re trying to basically squelch debate, because they know when there’s debate, they lose.”
The partnership between Google and the UN, which allows only “verified climate information,” dates back to 2021, when Google promised to manipulate its search engine and surface certain visuals and sources that aligned with UN ideology. This partnership, orchestrated to crush an alleged “infodemic” of “misinformation” about climate, has evolved into a major censorship initiative that persists today. Google in fact consistently exposes bias, as for instance when MRC exposed last month how Google uses leftist hate group Southern Poverty Law Center to criticize Trump allies.
Likewise, the newer declaration insists on a whole-of-society approach, including aid from private businesses and the need for Big Tech censorship on environmental facts and opinions not in line with UN dogma. Notably, UNESCO Director-General Audrey Azoulay specifically framed the declaration as a means to “fight the climate-related disinformation running rampant on social media.”
