Description
The climate crisis is urgent and existential. Climate-related disasters - hurricanes, tornadoes, and wildfires - impact communities regardless of political affiliation. Yet, polarization around climate change threatens to weaken public, policy, and corporate support for meaningful progress. How can we communicate about the climate crisis in a way that engages and motivates people to act, especially in such a polarized time?
This panel brings together leading women in communications and the arts for a rethink of how we can reclaim climate action as a unifying cause, the economic opportunity these solutions bring, and how these improve our quality of life.
