Noam Chomsky thinks the biggest news of November 8 was actually barely noted

[vkkv]

The winning candidate, now the president-elect, calls for rapid increase in use of fossil fuels, including coal; dismantling of regulations; rejection of help to developing countries that are seeking to move to sustainable energy; and in general, racing to the cliff as fast as possible.

1. Reagan took the solar panels off the white house roof...

As though they were hurting something.

It's apparently a sign of studliness to oppose sustainability.

2. Fairly widely noted round the world, I'd say

That's just from the first 2 pages of Google News's results for 'climate change', covering the last day or so.

As for the WMO report itself - well, it's just a summary of what we've seen week after week from NASA, the IPCC, and world scientists in general. It wasn't a shock.

5. Re-read headline:"" Noam Chomsky thinks the biggest news of November 8 was actually barely noted ""

Noam Chomsky thinks...

[frazzled]

3. It's been noted yugely in the mainstream press

Today the Times prominently featured an op-ed on coal, as well as several recent columns on climate change, on its editorial pages; the WaPo has had articles; I've heard the issue discussed on NPR and on PBS NewsHour. It's out there bigly.

4. good time to start

accuracy. trump supporters did not note this and the media did not. Progressives/liberals did know this.
I am not going to put up with broad brushes the sweep liberals into the ignorant/hate crowd. There is a difference and everyone including left writers better respect that.

6. I get my news from NPR, the BBC and the Washington Post. They have frequently reported on this.

Choose your media wisely.
