Rapid projects support government departments to understand the scientific evidence underpinning a policy issue or area by convening academic, industry and government experts at a single roundtable. The summary meeting notes seek to provide accessible science advice for policymakers. They represent the combined views of roundtable participants, and are not statements of government policy.

This note summarises an expert roundtable held in June 2023, covering current evidence for the impact of climate change mis- and disinformation on individual and collective behaviours, including potential mitigations that could be taken.
