CRITIC REVIEWS

Sensational
August 17, 2019
While not noted as such, the article veers dangerously close to pure opinion and speculation. Additionally, the reader may find that some passages can almost come across as word salad. exemplī grātiā: "These ideas about the future look very different from the technologically advanced and globalised tomorrow that the progress narrative seemed to promise." Some prospective readers may feel as if they are reading the prologue to a sensationalist science fiction novel. In general, the article somewhat lacks credibility due to the aforementioned. Readers looking for substantive content may wish to consider looking elsewhere.

PUBLIC REVIEWS

Great Context
August 3, 2019
It should be understood that this is an opinion piece (although there is no label as such). However, the immense amount of context, balance, and sources within this article provides knowledge into reframing the narrative on climate change, indigenous farming and lifestyle techniques to combat climate change, and much more. Great read overall.

Pure Opinion
August 5, 2019
This definitely should have been labeled as an opinion piece. With that said, it does provides sources to corroborate some of the many claims made within the piece. Very thought provoking.
