Original Note:

The false report was promoted by The People’s Voice, formerly known as NewsPunch, a clickbait news website, known for publishing false news. https://apnews.com/article/fact-check-dog-killing-climate-change-904289194639 https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2022/12/09/fact-check-false-claim-activists-want-kill-dogs-lower-emissions/10807102002/ https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-wef-climate-idUSL1N3361L6 https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/pet-murder-wef/
