I can't ignore the UX of this as simply not conducive to an article. It gives off such a strong PR vibe. Maybe it's just me
Yeah, the whole scrolling for data thing is cancer. Who do people think this is how users want to ingest information? Its the 2020's equivalent of a flash based website.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
It’s not an article, it’s a slideshow with pictures. Who actually wants to consume information like this?
A majority of humans.

I'm disappointed by the typical Hacker News folks complaining about the presentation format. This isn't the target demographic, and I applaud trying different approaches to convey the seriousness of these issues. The kinds of people who just want a spreadsheet and a PDF report are already bought in on the ideas. While I find the format a bit cinematic for my taste, I can't help but respect their efforts to drive home…

I find the UX undermines the credibility journalists are usually given, earned or not. This looks like a story, or a propaganda piece. I wouldn’t be the first to point out that the medium is the message.
Kudos for those guys for trying to tell the story differently in a hope to reach a broader audience.

A picture says a thousand words. It also contains far more kb of information.
When confronting climate change deniers the standard response is "weather is not climate". Saying it's hot today or cold today isn't an indication of climate change. It's what occurs over hundreds of years but especially the last 150 years.
It seems we are sending mixed signals saying that one day or a decade shows climate change. Then on the other hand we try to tell people one day or a decade is too short of a time to see changes. Yes we are certainly are seeing the effects of climate change now and it is real, just look at atmospheric carbon levels.
But saying it should be colder this time in the winter or last summer it was unusually hot. Anecdotal evidence isn't very reliable. My mother in her mid 70s told me her father (my grandfather) was out plowing the field in late November when my mother was born. Now if it's warm in late November people scream climate change.
Again, I do see and accept the evidence of climate change but I know people will see my comments as denial. I'm not denying it at all I'm 100% convinced it's just the phrasing and personal anecdotes I see disrupting the message.

It's quite scary.
