Misinformation is increasingly shaping the world around us, and it's incredibly difficult to address.
PR isn't generally associated with truth-telling, but I think PR teams have the skills and connections to help tackle misinfo and champion truth. My piece for IPRA: www.ipra.org/news/itle/it...

What is common knowledge in your field, but shocks outsiders?
Food systems are the #2 contributor to climate change, the #1 driver of deforestation, the #1 driver of biodiversity loss on land, and the #1 user of freshwater.
(It follows that food systems contain many solutions to these problems.)

I'm sorry but I don't think you can do "oh the Dems didn't talk about this one issue I love so that's why they lost" in *this* election, democracy was and is on the line, Trump is a horrible man who ran a horrible campaign, sometimes you have to just face the reality of the electorate being awful
