Hello #ClimateArena, I am here in Budapest. Please drop me a line to say hi, to talk collaborations, solutions, commissions, to grab a drink, or indeed to ask my tips for the city, which I’ve been exploring @journalismarena.eu

A lot of good points made by @melbunce.bsky.social. Crisis reporting tends to be "sporadic, episodic" focusing on western lives.

But humanitarian reporting can aim for moral equivalency – all lives have equal value, use local sources, report on the longer term angles

Really good panel about reporting on big industries like tobacco, fossils fuels and the "vast harm" they create.

Ben Hallman of @theexamination.org speaks of “corporate determinants of health” and how industry shapes public health narratives.

I'm at #ijf25 @journalismfestival.com and first session is on how newsroom leadership can drive better climate reporting.
