Summary: As the climate changes, so does the vocabulary around it - to amplify concern, to dampen concern, to serve corporate concerns… It is linguistically fraught! Journalist Amy Westervelt of the podcast <a href="https://www.criticalfrequency.org/drilled" target="_blank">Drilled</a>, Alice Bell from the climate charity <a href="https://www.wearepossible.org/" target="_blank">Possible</a>, and Robin Webster from <a href="https://climateoutreach.org/" target="_blank">Climate Outreach</a> explain some of the shifts in terminology, the squabbles and the industry interference - and how to communicate about climate in a way that does result in useful action.
