Mainstreaming the REAL Climate Debate

Amplifying the TRUE Voices of the Rational Middle

"The great tragedy of climate finance is that those who understand it most have their noses to the grindstone, while those who understand it least have their mouths to the megaphone."

Ending the Injustice of Information Assymetry

Carbon and biodiversity markets enjoy broad support within the scientific and environmental communities, but a small gaggle of outliers has convinced a critical mass of reporters that the opposite is true. 

They’ve achieved this by stealing a page from the science-denier handbook to turn the process of honest inquiry against itself. 

The result is a decades-old a gap between those engaged in legitimate debate and those engaged in public discourse.

Four groups have exacerbated this gap:

  • Opportunists eager to exploit information asymmetries for their own benefit.
  • Ideologues who repeatedly circumvent the larger body of experts to push their “research” to compliant media.
  • Media more interested in garnering clicks than in spreading awareness.
  • Proponents who counter pseudo-scientific disinformation with simplistic responses that fail to address legitimate challenges.  

Bionic Planet aims to close the gap by mainstreaming the legitimate debate and supporting fact-based knowledge-sharing in developing countries.
