Can Media heal the traumas it helped to create?
Building a Trauma-Restoring Media System
Matthew Green, author of The Resonant World on Substack and a longtime climate journalist with deep experience at Reuters, DeSmog, and The Guardian, is a chance to explore the inner dimensions of climate collapse, the emergence of new narratives, and the spiritual-emotional undercurrents of ecological awakening.
Matthew’s work helps make sense of the emotional, ethical, and imaginative shifts required for deep systemic change—and connects personal transformation to planetary healing.
Politics, business, finance and world news – legacy media tends to pigeonhole the crises erupting all around us in familiar categories. But what if the chaos is a reflection of the unresolved intergenerational and collective trauma lying latent in the collective psyche? And what if the default way that media organisations cover the news is only serving to reinforce this trauma – rather than helping to address it?
Join Matthew Green, a former international correspondent for Reuters and the Financial Times, and James Scurry, a senior producer at Sky News, psychotherapist and contributor to the #MediaStrong conference on journalism and trauma, for a lively exploration of what it would take to build a trauma-restoring media system capable of supporting collective healing. Now training as a trauma integration facilitator with Thomas Hübl and team, Matthew is dedicated to supporting the evolution of his industry into a force capable of illuminating the deepest psychological origins of our global crisis – and fulfilling its potential to support the emergence of a thriving future.
Matthew Green is global investigations editor at nonprofit climate news service DeSmog. A former climate correspondent at Reuters, he is also the creator of Resonant World, a newsletter and podcast supporting the global trauma healing movement.
Global Conferences Are Failing Us
The world’s most high-profile gatherings aren’t solving the crises they were built to address.
From COP summits to Davos to the World Social Forum—too many meetings, too few solutions.
Why it matters:
We don’t have time for performative panels and diplomatic selfies. What we need is collaborative action — now.
⚠️ The Problem with “Conference Culture”
COP = More Talk, Less Action: 30 years of climate summits, and emissions are still rising.
Davos for the 1%: The World Economic Forum claims to shape the future—but the future it’s shaping looks like the past.
Social Forums Stall: The World Social Forum preaches change but struggles with implementation and global impact.
All Share a Flaw: Top-down models. Closed rooms. Speeches, not systems.
“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking that created them.” – Albert Einstein
Enter: MobilizedNews.com
A living media network—not just another event.
MobilizedNews.com replaces the “summit” with a 24/7 global collaboration platform.
Think of it as a World’s Fair of Solutions — open-source, decentralized, and action-driven.
Journalism + documentary + grassroots organizing
Decentralized participation, not corporate gatekeeping
Multilingual tools to connect across borders
A system that empowers creation — not consumption
“I must create a system, or be enslaved by another man’s.” – William Blake
✅ What Makes It Different
Always-on: No more waiting for once-a-year events to address urgent issues.
Community-led: Local stories and global solutions co-created by frontline voices.
️ Toolkits over talking points: Real guides to build local food systems, energy co-ops, regenerative economies.
Participate, don’t spectate: Public assemblies, collaborative journalism, and shared intelligence.
What You Can Do
Join the network: MobilizedNews.com is open to contributors, creators, and changemakers.
Flip the script: Pitch a solution, report a story, or collaborate across continents.
Create, don’t conform: Build your own system with tools that work for people, not profit.
Spread the model: Share this platform with networks who are ready to act, not just talk.
The Bottom Line
Old models aren’t broken — they were built not to change.
It’s time to move from pageantry to participation. From talk to tools.
MobilizedNews.com is not another conference. It’s the platform to co-create a future that works — for all of us.
The old newsroom playbook is broken. If journalism wants to stay relevant, it must meet people where they are — mobile, visual, fast, and interactive.
The News Revolution Is Here
The way we get our news has changed — fast.
A new global report reveals that smartphones, influencers, and AI now shape how people learn about the world. And trust? It’s still on shaky ground.
Why it matters:
Media habits are shifting dramatically — and traditional news outlets risk becoming irrelevant if they don’t adapt.
The Big Picture
Mobile dominates: 39% in the U.S. start their day with news on phones — 57% for those under 35.
Social video > headlines: TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram are now core news platforms for Gen Z.
Trust is low: Only 40% globally say they trust most news most of the time.
Avoidance is up: 4 in 10 actively avoid the news — too negative, too confusing.
New Players, New Rules
️ Influencers rising: Joe Rogan reaches over 20% of weekly news consumers in the U.S.
AI enters the chat: 15% of under-25s now use ChatGPT or Gemini for news.
Subscriptions stall: Only 17% pay for news in rich countries — and growth is flat.
Around the World
Asia & Africa leap ahead: Countries like India and Thailand lead in video-first and AI-assisted news habits.
UK lags behind: Just 3% use AI weekly for news.
Alerts matter: Push notifications are one of the last direct channels for publishers — but easily ignored or blocked.
What’s Next
Video is non-negotiable.
Mobile-first design is critical.
AI is here to stay — but must be transparent.
Creators are competitors — and collaborators.
Business models need a reboot.
The takeaway:
The old newsroom playbook is broken. If journalism wants to stay relevant, it must meet people where they are — mobile, visual, fast, and interactive.
