Yes, failing NPR had a whole division of reporters dedicated to reporting climate hysteria. It would have been fine if they'd stuck to conservation and science instead of the anti-human cult thinking that says we're all gonna die if we don't stop the farting cows.

Here's the scoop from former Chief Climate Editor Neela Banerjee:

I've been at NPR for six years, and for the last three, I worked as head of its (relatively new) climate desk. We were 10 people who did ambitious, prize-winning enterprise and broke news. We launched an annual network-wide Climate Solutions Week that set the standard for cooperation with member stations and that gave audiences a sense of agency and inspiration amid the planetary gloom. We built a reporting collaborative of more than 50 member stations which covered climate at the local level and became tightly knit in the process. We broke down silos within NPR and helped our colleagues at shows, podcasts and desks understand climate change in their contexts.

It was a grand run. Today, I was laid off by NPR. The climate desk no longer exists separately but has been folded into the National Desk. I have rarely been as inspired or happy as I was working with the nine other journalists on NPR's Climate Desk, and I feel so very lucky to have helped you--and learned from you.

I'm finding my way forward, because as crushing as journalism can be, it has often given me purpose, joy and friendship. Our desk was a testament to that.

I'm glad she made some friends. Everyone needs friends.

Hopefully they all get the help they need after ingesting too much Al Gore and Greta Thunberg!

They probably don't even know that billions of humans are enjoying life without an impending sense of "planetary gloom."

Papers all over are downsizing their climate teams as the 50-year campaign to use the weather to enact Marxism has failed. ๐Ÿ‘‡
