In a recent article in Current Affairs, Adam McKay talks about the gargantuan lie that is collapsing the world's climate. Like Mark Twain, McKay starts his article talking about all the different forms of lying. He then goes on to try to wake us up to the lie that could end it all, the lie that makes us believe that "when it comes to climate change...we have more time"

McKay has been trying to wake us up to this lie for a long time, through his nonprofit studio, Yellow Dot Studios, which is dedicated to countering the lies of Big Oil, and through his film, Don't Look Up.
