Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.
As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades:
How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world:
Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:
Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.
Several outlets do; I've seen good coverage in:
There are a bunch of tiny outlets which provide specialty coverage:
The big thing that's missing has been TV news coverage, where it gets ~1% of news minutes
I'll check out those small outlets and consider adding them to my own page.
I meant sites should have a dedicated section or page. Like on a news site along the other sections like World, Opinion, Business, etc, have a link to a climate page. I'll double check those outlets and see if they do that.
I am open to other suggestions for things to post on my own page.
Interesting article regarding broadcast networks. Thanks!
they should but they won’t – it’s not in the interests of their owners
Depending on where you are, some do. The state media in Denmark has a dedicated category called "climate" that covers all climate related news. That includes news about climate projects being challenged by red tape and so on. Of course being state media they don't directly take a stance, but just reports.
Do you really think that the weather is more important than any of these works of investigative journalism?
It is more than just weather, nobody said that anyway. We are on track to make large sections of the earth uninhabitable for humans, crop failures, costal city flooding, and catastrophic weather events. Suffering at a scale we haven't seen since WW2, possibly worse. If you are under 50, probably in your lifetime, maybe even under 60.
It sounds like the intent is for media outlets to add a climate page along with the rest of their sections and for A/V media to add a few seconds to their regular content to say: Donate to X climate organization, or adjusting your thermostat saves Y emissions and X% dollars, or visit our climate page, or call your city council, use your imagination.
