Where is the futurama reference "none like it hot"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 61.69.53.133 ( talk) 05:36, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
Hey, great idea for an article! This could be a great resource for people looking for novels and movies that feature global warming. Unfortunately, it's poorly organized. So, here's what I suggest:
1) Create categories like feature films, novels, short stories, comics, and television.
2) Under each category, list each entry either alphabetically or chronologically. I think alphabetic would be the easiest to do. However, chronologic would be good as it would kind of show the evolution of climate change in pop culture, and would be more helpful to people looking for more recent references.
3) Begin we each entry with its title, followed by a brief description or plot summary.
4) To keep the article truly focused on pop culture, we should not include documentaries or non-fiction writings, as these things don't quite fit the definition.
If nobody has any objections, I'll start working on the re-org.-- CurtisSwain ( talk) 06:30, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
Should this article include street art also? There's no category for it as yet. I'm thinking specifically of this recent piece of work by graffiti artist Banksy which I think would count as 'popular culture'? : "Banksy marked the end of the 2009 United Nations Climate Change Conference by painting 4 murals on global warming. One included "I don't believe in global warming" which was submerged in water." [1] ~Susan 82.45.201.15 ( talk) 00:58, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
Please note that, by a decision of the Wikipedia community, this article and others relating to climate change (broadly construed) has been placed under article probation. Editors making disruptive edits may be blocked temporarily from editing the encyclopedia, or subject to other administrative remedies, according to standards that may be higher than elsewhere on Wikipedia. Please see Wikipedia:General sanctions/Climate change probation for full information and to review the decision. -- ChrisO ( talk) 13:39, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
Would the Colin Beavan film No Impact Man be included or not since it is a documentary? 99.37.85.53 ( talk) 16:56, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
Beijing Gallery Puts a Focus on Global Warming by Edward Wong, published September 28, 2011 in The New York Times. 97.87.29.188 ( talk) 22:13, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
There are five items in Climate change in literature which are not in Climate change in popular culture: The Drowned World, Mother of Storms, The Carbon Diaries: 2015 (sic), Far North, The Contingency Plan. I propose to add them to Climate change in popular culture, then do a blank-and-redirect on Climate change in literature. Reasoning: readers can find all climate-change-in-literature items in one place. But if there are definite objections on the talk page of either article, I won't bother.

I have effectively reverted 108.73.113.4's addition of several non-fiction books to the Literature section. I objected on May 5 that these books are not Literature, in Talk:Climate_change_in_literature, and saw no reply. They also are not "popular" or "cultural", as far as I can tell. I did not remove the praise of Al Gore. And if somebody has some good criteria for inclusion that wouldn't include (say) the first IPCC report, perhaps more can fit. Peter Gulutzan ( talk) 01:20, 13 June 2013 (UTC)
Nearly all of the text in Climate fiction is bibliographic in nature, and is therefore redundant with the sections of this article. The little bit from "climate fiction" that actually says something about the genre in general could easily be transported here.
The reason to merge from that article into Climate change in popular culture is because there are a few words here that do not easily fit into the other article - the section about video games. That's not "fiction", and that's why we should remove the redundancy of these two article by merging from there to here. For that matter, maintaining the article here allows for addition of new categories, e.g., music and visual art. NewsAndEventsGuy ( talk) 15:57, 31 March 2015 (UTC)

As a non-expert on this topic I am puzzled by the inclusion of high culture authors in the "Fiction section"". Shouldn't they be deleted or some explanation added for their inclusion? Are even J. G. Ballard or Kim Stanley Robinson, let alone Ian McEwan and jeanette Winterson, popular culture authors? Rwood128 ( talk) 07:54, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: moved as requested per the discussion below. Dekimasu よ! 18:14, 8 May 2018 (UTC)
Climate change in popular culture → Global warming in popular culture – Pretty much all the listed entries here involve global warming specifically as the catalyst for their setting/plot rather than climate change in general. ZXCVBNM ( TALK) 19:41, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
Support. We need to be consistent with naming across articles, per WP:CONSISTENCY. The article on Climate change is about climate change generally. The article on global warming is about human activity leading to climate change. Also, "global warming" is the common name for man-made climate change, so WP:CommonName.

The content of List of climate change books is more or less the same as the subsection here. Feel free to join the discussion. Arcahaeoindris ( talk) 13:24, 10 June 2021 (UTC)
I think it's odd to have a German language cartoon in the English Wikipedia. At the very least, i'd expect it to be translated. Here is a rough translation, which would fit within the caption: "(1) Climate Change?!? (2) Massively exaggerated. (3) Nothing is proven. (4) All within natural fluctuation. (5) And even if it exists... (6) ... it's a huge opportunity for business." -- Lommes ( talk) 16:14, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
