from The Current “It’s the Climate, Stupid” by Jeffrey Insko
excerpt:
The problem with the focus on a charismatic spill, however, is that it can overshadow disasters that are less visible, that unfold more slowly, and aren’t confined to a single compelling site. Biodiversity loss, species extinction, and climate change — these calamities are harder to crystallize in a single image or a simple, galvanizing narrative. However, they pose threats that are at least as dangerous, if not more so, as an oil spill from a ruptured pipeline. No tunnel can solve that problem.
