This study sought to investigate the relationship between climate change information sources, fact-checking, and attitude among students at Adeleke University. A descriptive survey design was adopted for the study using a questionnaire. The data were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics. The majority of the 688 survey respondents had an unworried attitude about climate change. Students were discovered to obtain climate change information through Google, television, friends, family, Facebook, radio, YouTube, and Instagram. Students were discovered to often fact-check climate change information. Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, radio, church/mosque, friends, religious leaders, and fact-checking have a significant relationship with climate change attitudes. The study concluded that using social media and religious aspects as a source of climate change information may associate to an unworried attitude about climate change. As a result, it suggests addressing religious concerns about climate change. |
