My thoughts exactly. Seems like the authors don’t want to confront the idea that policymakers simply don’t give a fuck about the climate, so the explanation has to be that scientists failed to communicate.
I mean, it’s The Hill. They might “lean left” in their bias, but they’re basically a mouthpiece for congress. of course they’re not going to say “we voted against climate protections and resilience because we’re receiving massive donations from people that would be hurt by those changes.” (or, in the case of Manchin, is in fact a part owner of an oil company… one that just got it’s pipeline project rammed through despite pushback…)
Oh I meant the original authors of the paper they reference, but it does apply to The Hill too probably
