As we enter 2022, and with COP26 behind us, everything remains to be done for climate journalism. Major, and disruptive changes are expected as decarbonation starts. As journalists, we will have to rethink the way we cover almost everything and acquire new scientific and economic skills. So, is journalism ready to uphold its mission to serve the people’s right to know, monitor progress, detect misinformation about climate without creating more news fatigue? The news industry is already on the move building coalitions such as CCNow, or seeking help from climate journalism networks. From climate desks to the "all newsroom approach", what are the options to be up for the task? How are newsrooms planning to cover the biggest story ever? And how can we tackle the most pressing issue: climate change literacy versus greenwashing?
