SUMMARY:Talk as if Climate Change Matters
DESCRIPTION:eMERGE hosts Katharine Hayhoe\, one of Time Magazine’s ‘100 Most Influential People’. \nCommunicating climate change to motivate action has been a challenge.  \nThe scientific community continues to provide more evidence that we need to act now. This approach can however\, paralyze some into inaction. \nResearch has shown that there is a better way.  \nKatharine Hayhoe will join us in sharing what social science teaches us on how to talk about climate change. Values\, ethics\, and compassion\, more than facts\, are the key to success.  \n \nAbout Katharine Hayhoe \nKatharine Hayhoe is an accomplished atmospheric scientist who studies climate change and why it matters to us here and now.
