GreenPolicy360: The development of science over the ions is, as the song goes, "a long and winding road" but here we are in the 21st Century and still facing ancient themes. The "Scientific Revolution", as it was called, was based on ancient knowledge -- and arguments -- that carried throgh the "Middle Ages" and led to "The Enlightenment", "The Age of Reason", and in Europe the end of "Feudalism", and beginning of "Mercantalism", "Colonialism" and "Capitalism." The social and political revolutions, across the world in the 1800s brought on conflict and wars into the 1900s and a new "Internet Age", connecting nations across our planet marks the beginning of a new electronic, computer era.
Within the computer, information networking of the Internet "World Wide Web", many of the old arguments carry on with computer-assisted reach, engagement, and persuasive power.

On Anti-disinformation work
In the last five years of a whole cottage industry (has been built) of research centers, academic studies, journalistic conferences and tech summits on disinformation.
In 2017, the CUNY School of Journalism (now called the Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism at CUNY) launched a $14 million News Integrity Initiative with primary funding from Facebook, with the goal of “helping people make informed judgments about the news they read and share online.” That same year, the Omidyar Network announced $100 million in funding for journalism outlets and to organizations combating hate speech and the spread of false information. The Annenberg Innovation Lab launched a “Truthiness Collaborative” to “advance research and engagement around the misinformation, disinformation, propaganda and other challenges to discourse fueled by our evolving media and technology ecosystem.
Now in just the last year, there’s a plethora of new organizations with names like The Forum on Information and Democracy, Digital Citizens Alliance, the Coalition for a Safer Web, and the Global Project Against Hate and Extremism.
