ESSIC associate research professor Melissa Kenney was an interview subject in a recent Christian Science Monitor article about the challenges of communicating climate change news to the public. The article notes that climate scientists and communicators must walk a fine line between raising awareness and overwhelming or desensitizing the public. In the piece, Kenney lists several indicators that citizens can track to identify ongoing changes to the climate but suggests coupling them with an understanding of how to address those issues.
