What The European Sting has been covering
Our account of each story, written from every outlet that ran it, with The European Sting’s own report linked underneath.
A UN report states that global warming will inevitably surpass 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. Current policies project a rise to 2.8 degrees by 2100, but immediate, significant emissions reductions could limit the peak and return temperatures to 1.5C by 2100.

A United Nations report indicates humanity is heading for a hotter world than previously projected, partly due to increased emissions from the United States. If countries meet their reduction pledges, the Earth will likely warm by 2.2 degrees Fahrenheit (1.2 degrees Celsius).

What we have seen ourselves
Counted across the stories this site has published, which is the only denominator a reader can check: every one of them has a page, and every page lists the reports it was written from.

10 of those reports were paywalled or blocked to us. Our reading of this outlet is built on the 0 we could open, not on everything it published.
A blindspot is measured against one side of the spectrum. The European Sting has not been placed on the spectrum, so there is no side to count against and we publish no figure here.
Across the 10 stories of ours where at least three of the reports we listed carried a time, another outlet was always ahead of The European Sting: its report arrived a median of 2 days after the earliest one we logged.
Measured 21 October 2026. Last seen in a coverage list 21 October 2026. Ratings pulled 12 October 2026.
Think this page is wrong?
The leanings above are published by AllSides, Ad Fontes Media and Media Bias/Fact Check, and we republish them rather than make them. If you think one is misapplied, the strongest place to say so is with the organisation that made it, and every verdict here links to their page.
What we are responsible for is everything else: the ownership chain, where The European Sting publishes from, which of our stories we have listed it on, and whether we have the right publisher at all. Tell us what is wrong and an editor reads it.
Report something wrong on this page
Anything we correct is written up in the public corrections log. We do not publish reader votes as a rating, because an unattributed rating is the thing this site exists to argue against.
Every rating on this page is a named third party’s published work, republished with its author and, where one exists, a link to it. Our own coverage record is the section we measure ourselves. Neither is a judgement of any individual report: those are scored story by story, and the reasoning is on our methodology page.
