The Guardian Goes Positive

On the Media | Dec 18, 2015

In April, the Guardian's outgoing editor-in-chief, Alan Rusbridger, told us about the paper's campaign to push the world's two largest health charities, the Wellcome Trust and the Gates Foundation, to divest from fossil fuels. But after eight months of campaigning, the foundations haven't budged. Now, the paper has moved on to what it calls Phase II - covering positive stories in the fight against climate change. Bob talks to James Randerson, the Guardian's assistant national news editor, about what the Guardian has learned while trying to reframe climate change coverage and keep readers interested. 

Be alert for scams. WNYC never asks for nor accepts money for coverage or interviews. Anyone making such a request does not represent WNYC.
