This article is largely preaching to the converted, so Monbiot omits the basic problem that makes climate denial propaganda so powerful. For a long time, this was an invisible crisis that required the public to understand scientific theory. Deniers used emotional language first, and used it better.
Climate breakdown is driven by a storm of lies. This lying is systemic, funded and coordinated, and operates across almost all media, old and new.
This week's column argues that we cannot fight the climate crisis without also fighting the epistemic crisis.

What’s really going on with AI and jobs?
Record-breaking layoff reports, Amazon's mass firings, and a slump in entry level employment. Is AI behind it all?

Today is reset day. All the building fallout, laundry, food shopping, recycling. Accounts. We’re definitely in a new chapter, even if the building work is still ongoing. One house is sorted, gym can resume, painting can resume. Writing can resume. Might even see other humans at some point!

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.
Here's how to turn it off.
