Broadcast Networks Covered Climate Change In 2016</a></font></b></font><br>
In 2016, evening newscasts and Sunday shows on ABC, CBS, and NBC, as
well as Fox Broadcast Co.'s Fox News Sunday, collectively decreased
their total coverage of climate change by 66 percent compared to
2015, even though there were a host of important climate-related
stories, including the announcement of 2015 as the hottest year on
record, the signing of the Paris climate agreement, and numerous
climate-related extreme weather events. There were also two
presidential candidates to cover, and they held diametrically
opposed positions on the Clean Power Plan, the Paris climate
agreement, and even on whether climate change is a real,
human-caused phenomenon. Apart from PBS, the networks also failed to
devote significant coverage to climate-related policies, but they
still found the time to uncritically air climate denial -- the
majority of which came from now-President Donald Trump and his team.<br>
<ol>
<li>Combined Climate Coverage On ABC, CBS, NBC, And Fox News
Sunday Decreased Significantly From 2015 To 2016, Despite Ample
Opportunity To Cover Climate Change.</li>
<li>Networks Had Ample Opportunity To Cover Climate Change In
2016. Despite the pronounced decline in climate coverage, the
networks had ample opportunity to cover climate change in 2016</li>
<li>ABC, CBS, NBC, And Fox Failed To Discuss Climate-Related
Ramifications Of A Clinton Or Trump Presidency Until After The
Election.</li>
<li>PBS NewsHour Was The Only Show To Discuss Climate
Ramifications Of A Clinton Or Trump..</li>
<li>Tyndall Report Found No Discussion Of Climate Change In Issues
Coverage During Campaign. The Tyndall Report, which tracks the
broadcast networks' weeknight newscasts, analyzed
election-related issues coverage on the major networks'
weeknight newscasts and found no issues coverage devoted to
climate change in 2016 up through October 25.</li>
<li>Networks Aired A Disproportionate Amount Of Climate Coverage
After Election Day...</li>
<li>Networks Did Not Air A Single Segment On Link To National
Security...</li>
<li>PBS Was The Only Network To Address Economic Impacts Of
Climate Change...</li>
<li>Networks Rarely Addressed How Climate Change Impacts Public
Health...</li>
<li>CBS And ABC Rarely Covered Climate Link To Extreme Weather,
While NBC And Fox Ignored It Completely.</li>
<li>The Clean Power Plan Was Almost Completely Ignored On Sunday
Shows And Received Sparse Coverage On Nightly News Shows.</li>
<li>PBS Far Outpaced Networks In Coverage Of U.N. Climate
Agreement And Summits.</li>
<li>CBS, NBC, And Fox Addressed The Climate Impacts Of The
Keystone XL Pipeline Only Once, While ABC And PBS Failed To Do
So At All</li>
<li>Fox Was The Only Network To Cover The Dakota Access Pipeline
In A Climate Context.</li>
<li>For The Second Consecutive Year, ABC's World News Tonight Did
Not Feature A Single Scientist In Its Climate Coverage. </li>
<li>Sunday Shows Did Not Feature A Single Scientist In
Climate-Related Coverage. </li>
<li>PBS And CBS Frequently Aired Coverage Related To
Climate-Related Scientific Research, While NBC And ABC Did So
Less Often.</li>
<li>Every Network's Sunday Show Significantly Decreased Its
Climate Coverage. After dropping slightly from a high of 81
minutes of coverage in 2014 to 73 minutes in 2015, the Sunday
shows' climate coverage dropped 85 percent to just 11 minutes of
coverage in 2016 -</li>
<li>Bernie Sanders Brought Up Climate Change Four Times As Much As
Hosts Did On ABC, CBS, And NBC Sunday Shows. </li>
<li>In 2017 So Far, CBS Evening News Has Already Aired More Than
Half The Amount Of Climate Coverage It Did In All Of 2016.</li>

<blockquote> A new "carbon law", modelled on Moore's law in
computing, has been proposed as a roadmap for beating climate
change. It sees carbon emissions halving every decade, while green
energy continues to double every five years.<br>
Moore's law is the observation that innovation doubles the number
of transistors on a computer chip about every two years and it has
held true for 50 years. The researchers behind the carbon law say
similar laws of exponential growth can already be seen in clean
energy.<br>
The researchers also set out milestones for each decade, with coal
disappearing by 2030, and oil by 2040. "It is both a tale of
extreme urgency, reminding the world community of what was agreed
[in Paris], and also saying it's not more difficult than it was
establishing Moore's law in IT which came through investment,
innovation and economies of scale," said Prof John Schellnhuber,
at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research in Germany,
another author of the article and who has advised Angela Merkel,
the Pope and the EU.<br>
The carbon law's proponents are senior climate-change scientists
and they argue it provides a simple, broad but quantitative plan
that could drive governments and businesses to make urgently
needed carbon cuts, particularly at a time when global ...<br>

Humanity is "now in truly uncharted territory," thanks to

(WMO) warned Tuesday.<br>
The WMO's annual <a

of the Global Climate in 2016"</a> paints a dire picture for
humanity: record CO2 levels, record warming, record drop in both
Arctic and Antarctic sea ice, and record high sea levels. Severe
droughts "brought food insecurity to millions in southern and
eastern Africa and Central America."<br>
NOAA reported this month that the record-smashing warming of 2016
continued into 2017. In this country, "there were 11,743 daily
warm temperature records broken or tied" in February alone.
Globally, it was the second hottest February and January-February
on record after 2016.<br>

<blockquote> Yesterday, I wrote a short post about Google's Top

you'd be presented with a Breitbart article filled with insane

The company has a lot of responsibility here, and it has tried to
shed virtually all of it. Google should make the legitimately
difficult but correct decision to filter out climate denial from
its Top Stories module. It is simply the right thing to do, and
Google knows it. Google can present whatever range of views it
pleases, but pushing climate change denial goes beyond that,
reaching into the territory of active harm...<br>
There are some things in this world that are simply just true, and
climate change is one of them. Climate change also happens to be
one of the greatest threats to the world at large, and at the very
least, Google, as one of the world's biggest information
providers, could do a good job by not highlighting falsehoods
about it.<br>

World Bank - Carbon Tax Guide : A Handbook for Policy Makers</a></b><br>
<blockquote> Recent years have seen renewed and growing interest in
carbon taxes that put a price on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
This resurgence in interest has come as over three-quarters of the
world have developed Nationally Determined Contributions under the
Paris Agreement and are looking for cost-effective ways to achieve
these emission reduction goals. It has also developed alongside a
gradual shift toward taxes on goods and services, with many
jurisdictions seeking to use the tax system to achieve greater
economic efficiency and to pursue a range of policy goals beyond
raising revenue. Experience has shown carbon taxes to be versatile
instruments that are capable of being adapted to a wide range of
policy goals and national contexts. This Guide provides a
practical tool to help policymakers determine whether a carbon tax
is the right instrument to achieve their policy goals and to
support them in designing and implementing a tax that is best
suited to their specific needs, circumstances and objectives. The
guide provides both conceptual analysis and important practical
lessons learned from implementing carbon taxes around the world.<br>

Trump Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the (Climate) Bomb</a></b><br>
<blockquote> Trump will reportedly instruct Environmental Protection
Agency chief Scott Pruitt to scrap and redo a landmark batch of
regulations known as the Clean Power Plan, a hallmark initiative
of former President Barack Obama that would have helped curb U.S.
emissions of greenhouse gases. According to the New York Times,
which obtained a draft document of the order, Trump will also
outline ways to block or cripple "about a half dozen" other
climate-related executive orders from the previous administration.<br>

Lays Plans to Reverse Obama's Climate Change Legacy</a></b><br>
"Trump's announcements have zero impact," said Richard J. Lazarus,
a professor of environmental law at Harvard. "They don't change
existing law at all."<br>
Much of that task will now fall to Mr. Pruitt.<br>
"To undo the rule, the E.P.A. will now have to follow the same
procedure that was followed to put the regulations in place," said
Mr. Lazarus, pointing to a multiyear process of proposing draft
rules, gathering public comment and forming a legal defense
against an expected barrage of lawsuits almost certain to end up
before the Supreme Court.<br>
