"An in-depth analysis of the content of the top-100 mediatized papers, in comparison to a random subset, reveals that news media showcases a narrow and limited facet of climate change knowledge (i.e., natural science and health)."

We end up with the rough equivalent of the Marvel movie franchise, an "NCU."

An impoverished, myopic perspective, waste of hidden talent-- the same problems as with the MCU.

Too true. A real opportunity to lead here, #sustainablebusiness: "When it comes to #sustainability, few companies seem to have mastered the art of #storytelling. And to the extent they tell #stories, they’re all too often filled with impenetrable jargon, head-scratching facts, overarching generalizations — and way too many buzzwords — that can undercut or obscure whatever message they’re trying to #communicate."

Thanks to worthy volunteer @kenrice we've updated our Escalator Earth temperature graph to include Berkeley Earth thru 2022.

The Escalator was created by dedicated volunteer Dana Nuccitelli, dates back to 2011 and is the earliest model of a communication mode we're now terming AIV, "Autonomous Information Vehicles," presentations that operate on their own to engage people, can easily be shared, slip across social boundaries.

Accelerating Antarctic ice, liars headed to court, spacecraft, snowmaking machines and trying our hand at --intentionally-- tampering with the atmosphere are only a few of the explosively complicated effects of anthropogenic climate change covered in this week's Skeptical Science New Research, #49 for 2022 and counting back up to #1.

142 articles published in 57 journals with ~1,011 contributing authors in this edition.

Nice collaboration on a graphic by @SkepticalScience volunteers Evan Whitby and jg.

The only trigger word is "climate,"* which is sort of unavoidable.

Part of a newly published analogy.

*waving extraneous flags explodes rationality and erects communications barriers.

Ready to see what Mastodon is all about! 🤗💙 Climate peeps, where y’all at? #climatecommunications #climatescience

Saying 'nothing can be done' about climate change is as scientifically untrue as saying 'we can stop climate change'.
The former - extreme dooming - is neither inspirational nor motivational. The latter, (false) inspiration, at least could result in some benefit. #climatecrisis #climatecommunications
