The public are beginning to join the dots between climate change, extreme weather and the impacts on our environment but what are the best strategies for communicating the scientific findings and how far should you go in talking about positive action. How will you ensure that what they’ve just seen or heard is not quickly discarded?

Join us to talk about the ins and outs of climate science communication, with climate science experts, specialist communicators and professional journalists. Interesting and engaging panel discussions will provide an excellent opportunity for you to ask your questions and give feedback about what we do in the future.

Also at this meeting, hear the latest from the Royal Meteorological Society’s Climate Science Communications Group and the newly-formed Climate Science Special Interest Group.
