I’ve never heard of The Conversation before. Just looked at an article. Here’s a snippet from the article
There’s both bad news and good news about climate change in the future.
The bad news is that as long as we keep burning carbon, it will continue to get hotter and hotter.
The good news is that we can substitute clean energy, like solar and wind power, instead of burning carbon, to power the products and services of modern life.
This is something I’d expect to see written in a 6th grade textbook trying to get past Texas’ textbook adoption committee. They pretend to give a nod to the climate change deniers by writing, “there’s good news and bad news..” with the good news being a non sequitor. One can use clean energy and strive for that regardless of whether or not climate change is real.
The website did seem much less alarmist than Fox News, CNN, etc.
- eatonphil 2y agoI'm not sure there is a staff. Post authors are academic researchers and PhD students around the world. I don't mean to say every article is good. I've just been impressed by what I've read so far.
- skhunted 2y agoYeah looking at one article is not a basis for a valid judgment. I did get the impression that it really is “left leaning” in a way to appeal to conservatives by coming across as non partisan. I’m a pseudo socialist so being left leaning is not an issue for me.
