The COP27 climate summit hosted by the Egyptian government was scheduled to run from November 6 to November 18. The conference was held over until Sunday, November 20, in order to reach a final landmark agreement on “loss and damage” financing, considered a step forward in both acknowledging and addressing global climate injustices. But even with this small victory no progress was made toward commitments to hold rising temperatures to 1.5 degrees Celsius. Whether deemed a success or failure, the annual international climate negotiations offer a two-week period to raise awareness and elevate discourse around an issue that too often gets sidelined by national TV news. Yet over the two-week event, TV news did not take this opportunity to center the climate crisis in its coverage or make its viewers more conversant on the current stakes and global dynamics of climate action. And for its part, Fox News has used the conference as an opportunity to push climate delay and denial.
