A new report, “Carbon Omission: How the Media Underreported Climate Change in 2017,” finds that the U.S. media has largely failed to connect the dots between our warming planet and extreme weather events. Read the report here: http://pubc.it/2lXlwq8.
Already in 2018, record cold and record snowfall, both consistent with our changing climate, have ravaged communities along the eastern seaboard and incinerated suburban societies along the Western. As evidence of our warming planet continues to amass, I urge all to report on the climate crisis with the authority it merits. Every media must do more to cover climate disasters of 2018 and attend to all those that may avail us in the future!
