"Aber sie hören nicht zu, wissen alles besser..."
We can say this about journalists, politicians and often self-entitled TV field-experts: they always think arrrogantly they know better
How else could you explain #ClimateDenial?
You should have an idea of the HUGE complexity of climatology&physics

The ACT Party’s climate policy is idiotic and deceitful.
NZ’s pledge to halve emissions by 2030 was already insufficient and then further weakened by accounting tricks, rollbacks, and a relaxed methane target.
Independent ratings do NOT see NZ as more ambitious than other countries.
It's blatant climate denial.

My personnal feeling is more like:
- first they went for climate-scientists #climatedenial
- then secondly they went for scientists and historians, it was at the beginning of COVID19
Journalists helped to complete the job
Then they continued, because it worked: Journalists are NOT scientists -

#Cdanslair Vu Philippe Dessertine déplorer la hausse du prix du baril de pétrole alors que, sur le même plateau, il déplorait en juillet pendant les mégafeux en Gironde l'évacuation de sa mère de 93 ans de sa maison du Cap ferret.

I love it when the #windows startup screen shows me images of Alaska, but the text accompanying this lovely photo of Portage Lake really misses the key point of the picture: When I lived here, there would have been a glacier taking up half the view.

Documents shed light on the earliest-known instance of #ClimateScience funded by the #FossilFuel industry, adding to growing understanding of #BigOil ’s knowledge of #ClimateChange . Fossil fuel industry sponsored climate science in 1954.
February 1, 2024, Rebecca John
Excerpt: "Unknown until now, however, is the fact that Keeling’s earliest research into carbon dioxide across the western U.S. was funded in part by the fossil fuel industry via a private foundation — and that in 1954 this foundation was informed of the potential impact of manmade carbon dioxide emissions on both the climate and human civilization.
"Newly discovered documents affirm that the #automobile and #petroleum industries funded early climate science #Keeling conducted at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) between 1954 and 1956. Records show that 'oil and auto companies' sponsored the scientist’s research via an organization called the Southern California Air Pollution Foundation, formed in 1953 to tackle Los Angeles’s infamous smog. American Motors, #Chrysler, #Ford, and #GeneralMotors were among 18 automotive companies that gave money to the foundation.
"A 1959 internal U.S. Public Health Service memo also identifies the #AmericanPetroleumInstitute ( #API ) and the #WesternOilAndGasAssociation — the oldest petroleum trade association in the U.S., which is now known as the #WesternStatesPetroleumAssociation — as 'major contributors to the funds of the Air Pollution Foundation.' Its Board of Trustees included top-level representatives from the Southern California Gas Company, the Southern California Edison Co., Chrysler, General Motors, and Union Oil (now #Chevron).
"And from mid-1955, these trustees were also appraised of research projects by a seven-man 'technical advisory committee,' which included a senior official from API as well as scientists from the Richfield Oil Corporation (now #BP ) and #Chrysler.
"With the discovery of these Air Pollution Foundation documents, it is now possible to date the earliest sponsorship of climate science by the fossil fuel industry to 1954, approximately a quarter of a century before Exxon’s internal research program of the late 1970s. These new documents provide important evidence that the fossil fuel industry has been intricately connected to climate science from its earliest beginnings — not only as a driver of the greenhouse effect behind climate change, but also as a contributor to the scientific discoveries that would transform our understanding of humanity’s relationship with the Earth and its atmosphere.

«…This collapse could be a result of global heating. “It’s not that much of a stretch to think, yes, we’re seeing one terrible ramification of human-caused climate change,” he says.…»
".…could be.…" and ".…not that much of a stretch.…"??? Could we even possibly make this accusation any more feebly?
Was anyone predicting glaciers would melt before climate change? They were formerly the kind of long-term fixed thing no one expected to change all of a sudden. Remember the phrase "moving at a glacial pace"?? That didn't arise because glaciers were prone to visible change in a short time.
But then climate scientists did their job and carefully worked out a lot of detailed consequences of physics, predicting that glaciers would be melting more and more everywhere, and that floods and mud slides and ultimately drought would be the next thing we'd see.
It doesn't take a complex analysis to attribute this to climate change. It takes a conspiracy of denialists, and the people that work for them, to suppress credence about the science if you want to tamp down anything so painfully obvious.
This is not a case where something happened and people said "what a surprise. we'll have to figure out the cause", like when a building burns down that no one expected to. This is a building that had a blaze burning in the front yard already and someone was positioning a large fan to assure the flames went toward the building in a known-to-be-dangerous way and then the building burned down and people are saying "hmm, we'll have to see what the cause might have been".
We need to stop reporting these events in isolation and report them as part of a coherent whole. Climate scientists' "a priori" predictions need their due. Predictions were copiously made in advance that the climate dice are not random but loaded, that bad things were about to happen. This is not a time for an "a posteriori" analysis where we pretend we thought the dice were fair and that sometimes bad things just happen randomly.

Not that there will be anyone left to write it, but when history looks back on this, it will not be seen as steps to protect the city but steps to be taken to avoid taking steps that protect the city.
Real protection from something that will just as surely overcome these steps as it has overcome present infrastructure means changing our society.
These are steps toward structural denialism, allowing the real problem to get larger by pretending that we can hold off seeing it for at least our lifetimes.
With every such delay, we multiply the problems that future generations will face.
Per the article «“The future of our city depends on the steps we take now..."» and yet what we really need is to finally say "we cannot wait any longer for a real fix" and the real effect of this is to say "yes, we can in fact wait. this is good enough for now".
This, and its ilk around the globe, takes real fear and dissipates it instead of galvanizing the will to make real change. This turns an existential threat to the planet and turns it into a pretended-to-be-manageable budgetary checklist item.

Like practically all far-right parties, Reform UK want to stop climate action. Perfectly aligned with fossil fuel interests, and could well be related to their murky financing.

"...high level of hostile sexism. Nearly half of these respondents reported they knew as much as or more than climate scientists about climate change."

Benegal and Holman 13 August 2025, Climatic Change 178, 153
Hostile sexism and overconfidence shape the public’s views of climate change.
