Breaking Down the Climate Change Communication Problem

By nisbetmc on March 4, 2010.

At the blog "Global Change: Intersection of Nature and Culture," Phil Camil has an excellent overview and synthesis of research on some of the communication barriers to action on climate change and the strategies for overcoming those barriers. Camil is associate professor and director of the Environmental Studies program at Bowdoin College in Maine.

At the post there are also links to other analyses by Camill on the problem of environmental literacy and engagement generally.
