Earth's Hottest Month

Since this thread is still open...I have to ask again...What exactly is the mainstream media's agenda on the topic if it is not to instill fear etc...

They mention climate change every chance they get in bot weather and other related news stories...What they NEVER do is make simple suggestions to what the average person can do...they always want to bring up the (supposed) cause and effects without ever suggesting solutions...

What's the deal Howie ??

The media's job isn't to make suggestions; rather, it's to report the news. Yet if the main agenda really is to combat CC, whether real or imagined, there are other less controversial things which could be implemented without pushback.

New's job is to report, not make suggestions. They report the story. You come up with your own opinion.

Editorial is where you get opinions, suggestions, etc...

The problem with many people today is that they call editorials news. They are not the same thing.

See, that's the thing right there.

"MEDIA" is the form of mass communication.

Radio, TV, newspapers, magazines, electronic communications, etc. are all media.

What is said on them is not media.

Whoever first started associating the messengers with media did a grave disservice to the world.

Packaging opinion disguised as news is a big money making machine. Look at NBCNEWS.COM, a fairly reputable site. It has opinion pieces jumbled in with news such that it is difficult to sort out which is which. Their opinion pieces are in the general category "Think" but that is a word that is easily overlooked, or not understood by who is looking at it.

NBC is only one of many. Pretty much they all disguise opinion as fact pieces.

This was the gist of my point/question...
You hear about climate change, rising sea levels, melting glaciers, extreme sever weather...everywhere you turn...but never a peep about even systemic solutions etc...It makes it pretty obvious that there must be an agenda and it has all the markings of propaganda and salesmanship...!

Yeah, where is all the flat earthers in mainstream media? Maybe the media stops talking about debunked ideas?

Never a peep about solutions???

Electric cars, wind, solar, move away from fossil fuels, etc. have been the dominant topic for several years.

Another solution that has been discussed is to eliminate half the population of the world. Any volunteers?

The lean towards green started long before the barrage of CO2 propaganda...
And again...sure you hear about the things you cited but never in the same breath (or story, article etc.)...
It's all about instilling an agenda for political considerations...

And BTW...everything mentioned has it's own issues...EV's...battery component mining issues...solar...How much heat do all those panels radiate?....wind...BLM...bird lives matter...!
