Where does the public get its information from when it comes to climate change? What role does the media play in shaping popular opinion?  Timo and Noah negotiate the issues of profit-seeking, corporate-owned media, of the unregulated proliferation of fake news, of social media "click-bait", and of the misleading framing of climate change related problems. Tricked by the complimentary label on a box of sickeningly sweet Silver Bay Point wine, Timo and Noah fell victim to the dangers of false advertising in the prelude to this episode; no one is immune to media manipulation. One must tread with caution. 

In the final part of the episode, non-mediatic literary engagements with climate change are examined. Drawing on Amitav Ghosh's 'The Great Derangement', Timo and Noah discuss the reasons why climate change poses such challenges to novelists, and encourage all artists to invest their creative energy into the monumental task of re-imagining the world.
