Media and Climate Change Observatory Special Issue 2021: A Review of Media Coverage of Climate Change and Global Warming in 2021 公开 Deposited
- Abstract
2021 was yet another critical year in which climate change and global warming fought for media attention amid competing interests in other stories, events and issues around the globe. Stories were told and written through primary and often intersecting, political, economic, scientific, cultural as well as ecological and meteorological themes. At the global level, across the full year 2021 media attention increased 55% from 2020. This was somewhat of a rebound in attention from a 2020 that saw coverage 23% lower than 2019. Compared to 2019, coverage was up 19%. 2021 coverage was more than double the amount of coverage in each 2016, 2017 and 2018, and 90% up from 2015. In fact, 2021 was the year with the highest amount of coverage of climate change or global warming since our global-level monitoring began 18 years ago in 2004.
