Apple to make a TV series based on The New York Times' Losing Earth climate change article

The New York Times

Apple has bought the rights to Nathaniel Rich's novelistic article that ran more than 30,000 words, taking up an entire issue of The New York Times Magazine earlier this month. According to The Times, "at least a half-dozen bidders sought to acquire the nonfiction project," which "recounted how, from 1979 to 1989, a small group of American scientists, activists and politicians tried to save the world from the ravages of climate change before it was too late. The article was produced with the support of the Pulitzer Center and was based on more than 18 months of reporting and over 100 interviews."
