Climate change is the story we failed to tell. It's become a way bigger section on their website and you can see that they're championing the environmental journalists in their organization, same as The New York Times too.
Ever thought about how the media shapes your views on climate change? In this episode of 'Force of Nature', Clover Hogan digs into this very topic, examining how the stories we consume impact our mental health and eco-anxiety. She chats with filmmaker and climate activist Jack Harries, who shares what first sparked his climate awareness and why he believes we've failed to tell the right story.
You'll also hear from young voices around the globe discussing how media influences their feelings about the climate crisis. Resident psychotherapist Caroline Hickman offers advice on managing these heavy emotions, while Stephen Dunbar-Johnson, President International of The New York Times, weighs in on how legacy media can better communicate the urgency of climate action. The episode doesn't shy away from tough topics like systemic racism's link to climate issues but also emphasizes the power of storytelling to drive positive change.
By the end, you'll feel encouraged to reframe hopelessness as a stepping stone to meaningful action. Dive in to understand how media can be both a challenge and a tool in our fight against climate change.
