ENV 316 - Communicating Climate Change

Institution:

Princeton University

Subject:

Description:

Climate change has the potential to wreak great havoc over the next century, threatening ecosystems, economies, and human lives. Scientists are putting enormous effort into trying to understand the causes, effects, and possible solutions to the climate-change problem. Yet the public still has only a vague idea of what climate science actually says, and much of that is badly distorted. The course will explore how to communicate to the public about climate change through print, web and video, in ways that are at once clear, compelling, and scientifically rigorous.
