Australian Youth Climate Coalition: NewsJacker

A simple tool that enables young people to hijack the news of climate change sceptics.

42% of Australians still don’t think climate change is a serious issue. This is because their news is filled with misinformation. And the more of this news they consume, the more they get served.
But if we can change their news, we can change their minds.

So, we launched NewsJacker - a tool that enables you to change the newsfeed of any climate change sceptic. Simply share our cookie recipe with a sceptic you know. The moment they visit the site, special technology built into the back-end of the site will update their online cookies and trick the internet into thinking they are climate change believers. Because of this, they’ll start getting served scientifically accurate news stories about the climate.
