The science is clear. The climate is changing, and the impacts of these change are already being felt around the world. Although scientific developments and improvements are happening all the time, these are not always visible to those outside of the science bubble. From school students who have questions about the future they face, to businesses and policy makers who are making plans for the next decade and beyond, bespoke science communication is crucial to improve the usefulness and impact of climate science.
In this presentation, I will showcase examples of communication techniques and engagement strategies I have used when working with different groups. General audiences can be reached through multiple channels including in person talks, podcasts, and tv appearances. When working with key stakeholders and policymakers, activities need to be designed to bring in their expertise throughout the science process, from designing driving research questions and selecting relevant indicators, to devising communication methods. This often involves working in transdisciplinary groups, which has its own set of unique challenges and benefits. Critically, and environment must be created where everyone's voices are heard and valued equally. I will pull together key learnings from across these experiences which others can apply to their own work.
Climate science alone will not solve the climate crisis, but by working alongside generalists and experts from other fields, we can help to ensure climate science is woven into future planning, increasing the resilience of our world to the changes it is projected to face.
