The "False Myths About Renewable Sources" project by Italy for Climate addresses misinformation about renewable energy, analyzing the most common prejudices that hinder the energy transition and aiming to stimulate a debate based on solid and verified data.
During the event, which brings together experts, photographers, journalists, and creatives, we will explore how media and other communication channels influence public perception, why and how they often spread false myths, and strategies to promote accurate information.
