Climate Guard - Toxic Agent - Dataset
Dataset Description
This dataset is a comprehensive consolidation of multiple climate-related datasets, focusing on climate disinformation and factual climate information. It combines and standardizes data from various high-quality sources to create a robust resource for climate-related text classification tasks.
Dataset Sources
The dataset incorporates data from the following sources:
- Tonic Climate Guard Series:
- climate-guard-thinking_data_nocomment_qwen_toxic_agent
- climate-guard-synthetic_data_qwen_toxic_agent
- climate-guard-thinking_data_nocomment_intern_toxic_agent
- climate-guard-thinking_data_nocomment_phi4_toxic_agent
- climate-guard-thinking_data_nocomment_yi_toxic_agent
- climate-guard-synthetic_data_yi_toxic_agent
- QuotaClimat/frugalaichallenge-text-train
- Climate FEVER dataset
- Quota Climat dataset (12% random sample)
Data Processing - 👇🏻Click to expand
The dataset underwent several processing steps to ensure quality and consistency:
Text Cleaning:
- Removed responses starting with apology phrases ("I'm sorry", "I am sorry", "I apologize", "Given the directive")
- Cleaned text between "---" markers
- Standardized text formatting
Label Standardization:
- Maintained consistent label format across all sources
- Special handling for '0_not_relevant' labels from specific sources
Source Tracking:
- Added source identifiers to track data origin
- Preserved dataset provenance information
Dataset Structure
The dataset is split into training and testing sets with the following features:
DatasetDict({
'train': Dataset({
features: ['identifier', 'text', 'label'],
num_examples: <num_examples>
}),
'test': Dataset({
features: ['identifier', 'text', 'label'],
num_examples: <num_examples>
})
})
Features:
- identifier: String identifying the source dataset
- text: The main text content
- label: Classification label
Labels:
0_not_relevant
: No relevant claim detected or claims that don't fit other categories1_not_happening
: Claims denying the occurrence of global warming and its effects - Global warming is not happening. Climate change is NOT leading to melting ice (such as glaciers, sea ice, and permafrost), increased extreme weather, or rising sea levels. Cold weather also shows that climate change is not happening2_not_human
: Claims denying human responsibility in climate change - Greenhouse gases from humans are not the causing climate change.3_not_bad
: Claims minimizing or denying negative impacts of climate change - The impacts of climate change will not be bad and might even be beneficial.4_solutions_harmful_unnecessary
: Claims against climate solutions - Climate solutions are harmful or unnecessary5_science_is_unreliable
: Claims questioning climate science validity - Climate science is uncertain, unsound, unreliable, or biased.6_proponents_biased
: Claims attacking climate scientists and activists - Climate scientists and proponents of climate action are alarmist, biased, wrong, hypocritical, corrupt, and/or politically motivated.7_fossil_fuels_needed
: Claims promoting fossil fuel necessity - We need fossil fuels for economic growth, prosperity, and to maintain our standard of living.
