Don’t exaggerate climate dangers; warn Scientist, Media and Film producers
Paul Hardaker and Chris Collier of UK’s Royal Meteorological Society said Scientists, Media and Hollywood (Film such as The Day After Tomorrow) are all guilty of making out that catastrophic events (Cyclones, Typhoons, Floods and the like Tsunami) were more likely to happen when this could not be proved by scientist.
Reporting the recent report of United Nations on climatic change by the media especially the use of words not in the report such as Catastrophic, Shocking, Terrifying and Devastating is not called for.
