The 1970s "coming ice age" is a good example of how our media mess things up. It was a handful of climatologists at the time and they had a concern, the Little Ice Age was a real thing, possibly related to solar activity. It was very speculative, but TIME picked it up and ran an hysterical cover story on it as if it was real.
Even a basic summary of some climate article is tough to read. And yet folks have strongly held opinions on the topic. Based on their politics, not science, which is pretty much beyond most of us, including me, I've tried.
Nearly every article in MSM about science has some errors, often massive ones. Things like Science News are a lot better, and very readable.
I saw a TESLA SUV hooked up to our new outlets. Usually the two spaces are empty, so far.
