Roxboro House Roundtables

The panel discussed prevailing theories of why climate change is controversial in the United States. Within this framework, we offered our thoughts on how to engage with citizens about climate change in a productive and progress-driven way. We discussed how messaging and communication can best be aimed toward the most vulnerable groups who will likely feel the stresses (both economically and physically) of a changing climate sooner and more significantly than most. We also highlighted on-going projects of PhilaU students that strive to address communication and engagement around climate change education.
