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.
This week's column argues that we cannot fight the climate crisis without also fighting the epistemic crisis.

I feel very sad and worried about the BBC capitulating to Trump. I’m assuming that’s what happened. The powers that remain should really stop giving in to the dictator.
