👉 Authors identify seven types of (more or less intentional) climate delay discourses at the local level.

The science is settled. The timeline is not. The new denialism isn’t disbelief—it’s delay.

It's based on an analysis of a large corpus of tweets by the German AfD and the Austrian FPÖ. They love to flip climate language on its head: instead of species extinction, for example, they warn of a "Kraftwerkesterben", a "dying off" of power plants #climatedelay

Der Doppelpass der Verzögerer und Bremser
1. Entwurf für ein 🇦🇹 #Klimagesetz, das sich nur auf EU-Ziele bezieht
2. Aushebeln der 🇪🇺 EU-Klimaziele
3. Transformation verpasst
#ClimateDelay
It's funny*... Now that the #ClimateDelay talking point "renewables are more expensive" is obviously not true anymore, the fossil fuel stooges switch to "renewables need more acreage". In a domain (US Federal Lands) where land availability is obviously not a constraint.
*It's actually not funny.
Hydrogen ICE is a delay tactic dressed up as innovation.
It’s inefficient, impractical, and not the future — just combustion in a new jacket.
We don’t need reinvention. We need progress.

This is #climatedelay from MM.
He talks about responsibility for energy security from dirty LNG, while ignoring responsibility to reduce emissions & protect future generations.
No doubt they are hoping EU laws will change to avoid fines.
Shameful.

Discourses of #climatedelay - translated into #Hungarian now!

We often talk about climate change, but have you heard of #climatedelay? @sonjasolomun.bsky.social explained the concept on the Let's Go radio show w/Sabrina Marandola @cbcradiocanada.bsky.social: bit.ly/41krCWq

We have a new report out! "Climate Obstruction: The State & Spread of Climate Disinformation in Canada," led by our deputy director @sonjasolomun.bsky.social, examines prevalent #climatedelay narratives — i.e. msging that acknowledges #climatechange but delays action & policy: bit.ly/climate-disi...
In fact @irishexaminer.bsky.social, why not publish pieces about #ClimateDelay & #ClimateDenial?
Now that we have a Min that denies that solid fuels cause air pollution, correcting climate mis/disinfo & holding the gov to account will be even more important, while also educating readers. #Speirgorm
Also, all the adaptations in the world won't save Ireland whenever the AMOC flips, or even continues to lose power, and we end up with the climate of Iceland.
John ticks multiple classic #ClimateDelay boxes, & frankly @irishexaminer.bsky.social, you should know better than to publish them.
Is #Nuclear just another #ClimateDelay tactic? Check out today's #DebunktionJunction featuring the intrepid @jvipondmd.bsky.social at #COP29!

The CAST (cast.ac.uk) centre is looking to crowd-source responses to common #ClimateDelay discourse.
Do you have any good ways to respond to tricky #ClimateChange comments? We’d love to hear from you!

Tactics of #ClimateDelay which is now a bigger threat than climate denial:
1. Redirecting Responsibility
2. Pushing Non-Transformative Solutions
3. Emphasizing Downsides
4. Surrendering
I see more conflict among climate activists in my timeline and I don't think it's by accident
PS - I hope you can see the #climatedelay #talkingpoints used:
"It's too late."
"Adapt, don't act."
"Other countries emit more #CO2."
There's usually SOME truth to such #misinformation, but it ALWAYS lacks context in order to push the #DenialMachine's attacks on #climateaction.
This is a great example of how #ClimateDelay 'works'.🤨
Pretending that #NetZero will solve the #ClimateCrisis is how the #DenialMachine will keep profiting and DELAYING effective #ClimateAction.
It's a game of smoke and mirrors, folks, with our planet as a prize NOBODY wins.🥴
