• Resumen

  • An essay is presented which discusses the press coverage of climate change, and states that it is dangerous for reporters to be too balanced reporting on an issue that so many scientists believe is settled fact. Topics discussed include the reporting of Bill McKibben, alleged efforts by the fossil fuel industry to interfere with climate change reporting, and the writing of journalist Ross Gelbspan.
