Communicating Climate Change: Talk at NASA Goddard

On April 8 at noon, I will be giving a talk on climate change communication at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, MD. Below are the details. The talk is open to all NASA staff as well as the public.

Communicating Climate Change: Why Frames Matter to Public Engagement

Bldg 8, Management Conference Center
Time: 12:00 PM

Building broad based public engagement on climate change requires a more careful understanding of the U.S. public's views on the issue as well as a reexamination of the assumptions that have traditionally informed public communication efforts. In this presentation, Nisbet reviews conclusions from his recent cover article at the journal Environment and discusses the implications of current research in the area.
