The cultural impact of climate change is seen in the emergence of "eco-horror" in film and media, where the planet itself acts as the monster.

Geert Wilders spoke at a "Free Tommy Robinson" march in the UK after being allowed entry by border officials. Separately, a media analyst discusses the emergence of "eco-horror," a subgenre where the planet itself acts as the monster in response to climate change. This trend is attributed to the influence of the Lear Foundation on Hollywood scripts.
