Yes – you were taught wrong. Journalism has a huge problem when it comes to reporting on the climate crisis. Time for reflection, discussion, commitment to do better.https://twitter.com/kiphillreporter/status/1189698451682013196 …

Who are you talking about when you talk about "journalism"? Because I've seen dozens of front page stories from my own newspaper, and national newspapers, addressing the issue. Highlighting people advocating for change. Offering cost/benefit analyses of policies to address it.
@EndClimtSilence has lots of good examples. Here NYT mentioned climate but TV coverage failed:https://twitter.com/EndClimtSilence/status/1188974432183820289 …

I'll admit that a solutions-based approach is probably lacking in a lot of this coverage, but I don't agree with the narrative that "the media" (whatever the hell that means anymore) is simply ignoring it.

The critique is not that all media, all of the time is "ignoring it." Rather, that significant coverage is lacking a significant amount of the time – not that it is *never* covered. And therefor does not give public proper context to understand how climate impacted X event.
