Meyer v. Atkin

Meyer and Atkin start off with introducing the New York Times article “Losing Earth”. Atkin mentions Meyer, quotes, and says that The Atlantic is arguing that a decade of an issue won’t advocate and decide who’s to blame. Meyer goes on to state that the Republicans of every presidential election are to blame for turning down treaties for climate change. There was a mention that Rich made in his article; the fossil fuel industry was unaffiliated with this issue. ExxonMobil more so. They were in denial of global warming which led to their negligent act. Atkin agreed with Rich on both accounts. Neither the Republicans nor the industry are to fully blame. It’s just human nature, we can’t stop what we are. Atkin finishes off with praising Rich and his journalism about an on going issue. Though it’s up for debate, “Losing Earth” isn’t the whole story, according to Atkin.
