England’s in the grip of a brutal drought, wildfires rage from Scotland to the Isle of Wight, and farmers warn of food shortages as even the Royal Horticultural Society braces for more dry days. Amid this crisis, right-wing media is pushing a misleading narrative that climate action is a leftist plot to destroy capitalism — claiming Britain should embrace its new “Mediterranean” climate and blaming environmentalists for worsening fires. But it’s not about swaying the public — it’s a political strategy to convince lawmakers that climate policies are unpopular, despite polls showing broad public support. Some politicians are already ditching net zero targets, chasing votes while media coverage leans negative, distorting perceptions. As the planet literally burns, a shadow war rages to make inaction seem like the only sane choice — and it’s dangerously ineffective.
