THE MEDIA ARE *NOT* THE MESSAGE

 The media are simply not doing their job in reporting on climate change. This has been brought to my attention in recent days by two separate incidents. 

First, about a thousand climate scientists around the world engaged in acts of civil disobedience in a desperate attempt to get the message out about the seriousness of climate change. This got just about zero press coverage.

Then there was the ridiculous disparity in coverage between the Will Smith/Chris Rock nonsense and the release of the IPCC Working Group 3 report on climate change mitigation. This rich piece of show-biz gossip got about 100-- or was it 1,000?-- times as much coverage as the latter. Absurd.

The media continue to deal with climate change as if it were of interest only to some minor demographic called 'environmentalists.' This has got to STOP!
