Get Talking, Get Blogging

Even scientists struggle with science, to expect the public or policymakers to jump straight in and understand is a huge roadblock to the development of climate science. This blog is going to review strategies for engaging the public in our changing climate and particularly the barriers science faces at the moment. We'll be exploring topics such as polling, education and the media and how all that feeds back into the UKs current climate strategy.

To start off with I'll leave you with a fantastic post by Jeremy Porter head of communications firm Jeremy Porter Communications. This infographic is slightly more imaginative than the name of his company and an excellent introduction into how we can start talking about Climate Change, sorry Pollution. Take a look at the accompanying blog post as well for some background.
