Engagement and Outreach

Developed in consultation with scientists, business leaders, and public policy experts, the following programs are designed to give you and your community group a framework for having a rational, factual, nonpartisan discussion about climate change and its impact — and to help you facilitate local action.

C-Change interviews noted experts in the fields of climate, meteorology, energy, clean technology, investments, insurance, health, and more. These discussions are offered to the public via Zoom or during live events.

Webinars

C-Change Conversations podcasts feature interviews on a wide array of climate issues, including risks, solutions, and how to increase climate literacy. The episodes are available on Spotify, Substack, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube.

Podcasts

C-Change is available to speak to and appear on panels at meetings of national organizations. Notable past appearances include the Garden Club of America, Rotary International, the Land Trust Alliance, and the American Geophysical Union.
