The concept of nature is often abused and exploited in the storytelling of climate change. What can follow is disinformation and misinformation. Therefore, this contribution aims to discuss the different ways in which the concept of nature is (ab)used in relation to climate change, starting from the social construction of nature. To this end, the discussion focuses on the role of reductionism in the promotion of an anthropocentric idea of nature, in which different narratives of climate change are placed: on the onehand, the rhetoric of ‘save climate/nature’, in which climate/nature are understood as a resource to be saved; on the other hand, the negationist theories, which exploit a concept of nature built to question the evidence offered by science
