Carl Pope: Taking the Initiative - Sierra Club: "'It is a gradual, compounding problem whose advance is measured in decades . . . and neither governments, nor journalists, nor we citizen consumers of news are very good or very experienced on issues that fall on this part of the wavelength spectrum. Consider: If the press couldn't muster the discipline and news judgment to focus on the danger of terrorism in the two decades before 9/11, despite all the warnings, evidence, and informed and expert reports, are we surprised that they have not been able to focus on climate change or the environment?'"
