st.markdown("**Why does this matter?** Through echo chambers, polarization, and feedback loops, misinformation can spread from these large organizes to the public, thus arming the public with pursausive information designed to create scepticism around and/or denial of climate change, its urgency, and climate change scientists. Existing research suggests that misinformation directly contributes to public support of political inaction and active stalling or rejection of pro- climate change policies (1).")
