Wtf? The world saw massive wide fires, and climate change was covered like every day for a month. The media is absolutely talking about it.
What trash corporate news are you watching?
The people who control the media don't want climate action. This has been the case for decades. Why pretend it's a new phenomenon?
Big Tech and Big Oil have fused – Call it Fossil Tech https://naomiklein.substack.com/p/big-tech-and-big-oil-have-fused-call
They're also taking a lot of the attention.
The same answer as usual, I'd imagine-- billionaires owning most major incorporations these days, meaning that usually the end-product is heavily processed and filtered in line with their own interests, such as tampering with narratives and enriching their wealth.

MONEY, ITS ALWAYS FUCKING MONEY!!!!
Climate changed. It'll continue to change at an increasing rate, but it already changed too
And so far, every time it changed, dominant species died off. Brilliant future awaits 😉
They can't handle the truth so they try to cover it up. Minimize your oil & gas purchases. O&G are the ones controling media and lobbying governments to rule in their favour.
