Twitter's Community Notes fact-checked @PeterSweeden and he fact-checked the crowdsourced fact-checkers:  Swedish journalist Peter Imanuelsen who goes by @PeterSweeden on Twitter tweeted about how climate change is impacting the banking and financial industries. "In Sweden we already have a credit card that tracks how much C02 is used in your purchases. If you exceed your monthly carbon limit, your card gets blocked for the rest of the month. This is the dystopian future that is coming," he tweeted. Twitter added a Community Note warning label to the post that read: "The DO black credit card was discontinued in 2022. It tracked a carbon budget but was not designed to limit people’s life. Doconomy has today changed business model all together." The note additionally linked to a PolitiFact article. However, Imanuelsen later disputed the fact check calling it misleading. "Somebody needs to fact check this 'Fact check,'" he wrote.  "Doconomy who is behind the credit card now has their C02 tracker DIRECTLY built in to online banks. Meaning they spy on your purchases to measure your carbon emissions They also participated at the World Economic Forum in Davos..." He added that "This fact check tries to give the impression that they have "stopped" doing the carbon tracking. Quite the opposite. They are expanding and building the carbon tracking directly into online banking at various huge banks. How long until this will be mandatory?" Imanuelsen even noted that "Doconomy has even built something they call the '2030 calculator' that people/companies can use to measure their C02 emissions. Why is it called the 2030 calculator? Because used as part of meeting the UN Agenda 2030 Global Goals of course!"
