“As our social media feeds fill up with AI-driven bots, sheer repetition of lies may erode the most essential resource for action on climate change — public support.”
“A lot of times, people are not drawn in when climate is the top line. So I like to start with [a question like] ‘O.K., what’s affecting your daily life?’”
In 2023, stories produced by the organization’s climate teams outperformed the average story on the website in 11 months out of 12, often dramatically.
“When a crisis comes knocking, people turn to journalism to make better decisions. This is what is happening with the climate emergency.” Moreno Cruz Osório
Even if scientists haven’t confirmed that a particular hurricane, wildfire, or heat wave was made worse by climate change, they know a lot about the big-picture effects of warming on extreme weather events.
