Summary

Story summary

The media's coverage of climate change remains alarmingly insufficient, even as urgency mounts. With 36% of the global population still skeptical, reporting tends to surge during crises but fades away otherwise. While the U.S. achieved a 2.3% drop in emissions this year, proposed rollbacks jeopardize future gains. We need robust reporting to inspire public awareness and action.
