The @biologicaldiversity.org & Brighter Green’s new report shows the media failure to fully address the problems/solutions of the climate crisis: nearly 99% of climate stories didn’t mention sustainable diets & 97% failed to mention animal ag broadly.

I've been asked whether Algernon Goldfish might have done it. While he was just the kind of fishy character who might have attempted a crime on this scale, he was struck off the register after I wrote the article, which left him floundering. At the time he was almost the only operator who had been.

Two things I’m confident are robustly positive in the face of epistemic and moral uncertainty:
1) Naturalistic “evidence & reason” understanding of reality
2) Sentiocentric “compassion for all sentient beings” moral scope.

Climate breakdown is driven by a storm of lies. This lying is systemic, funded and coordinated, and operates across almost all media, old and new.

The real question is: what could this land do instead?
In most regions, it could support forests, native grasslands, wetlands, or plant foods that feed more people with far less impact.

When did you last think about your worldview?
Most people rarely think about their worldview.
That’s fine if it’s a good worldview.
But it’s dangerous if it’s a bad one.
