As we look ahead to 2024 and reflect on the unprecedented heat, economic challenges, and climate change headlines of 2023, we are pleased to welcome back Project Censored’s Andy Lee Roth to discuss the most overlooked environmental stories of the past year. Andy previously joined us to delve into the under-reported stories of 2022. Join us for a comprehensive discussion on the hidden environmental stories covered by independent news sources such as The Guardian, High Country News, and others monitored by Project Censored.
While the mainstream press has increased coverage on climate change, offering practical information and hiring sustainability columnists, there is still a lack of investigative reporting on significant environmental abuses by corporations and governments. As attention to the climate crisis grows, it is crucial to delve into its root causes, from biased research funded by private entities to the inadequate regulation of new products and chemicals, such as per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances.
In today’s era of transactional politics, the news is shaped by what we are willing to pay for. This makes an independent press more essential than ever. Discover more about Project Censored’s 2023 under-reported environmental stories at https://www.projectcensored.org/
