This collaboration will use engagement, solutions journalism and education to help central Pennsylvanians toward climate literacy, resilience and adaptation.
Introducing Climate Solutions. Get in touch, let us know what questions you have about climate change in central Pennsylvania, and tell us if you're interested in hosting an event. https://t.co/YfF2CZS0QF
We've heard this repeatedly from people: They get that there are big climate solutions (like transitioning to renewable energy), but they wonder, What can *I* do? @_rachelmcdevitt is answering that question in a new video series: https://t.co/qfLlCzChto @soljourno
An ongoing soil-health study will be expanded to help farmers across 15 states adopt sustainable farming practices that reduce or sequester carbon emissions, or help them prepare to be climate resilient. https://t.co/d53BlgnPFm
Energy efficiency saves homeowners money and cuts emissions from home heating, a top contributor to the greenhouse gases that fuel climate change. That could help in Pa., which has some of the oldest housing stock in the nation. https://t.co/I7L8V8PYFC @soljourno
The news about climate change is often depressing. So can news about what's working to address climate change make a difference? In this study, @Tong_L132 and I show it can. #envcomm#solutionsjournalism

Appreciate @insideclimate's @katelyn_eliz writing about Climate Solutions' deliberative forum, where two dozen central Pennsylvanians studied background info, learned from experts and had productive small-group discussions on climate problem-solving. https://t.co/nkzEhEPbiA
.@ClimateInPA 's deliberative forum, perhaps the first of its kind in Pa., showed that you can bring people together for respectful, non-judgmental discussion on issues that affect everyone, regardless of politics.

You can be part of a unique event -- join @ClimateInPA 's deliberative forum on climate issues and potential solutions. Here's how: https://t.co/M1bH9Upk4Y
“People solve for two greens; they solve for the dollars and carbon. Different institutions, different people decide which green to lean towards." https://t.co/k0rk9vQYd7
Places like Harrisburg are planting more trees to improve the urban canopy. But if roots of trees buckle a sidewalk, for example, a homeowner is on the hook.

Climate change is expected to bring more extreme rain to Pennsylvania. Here's a video + text look at one of the related problems -- stormwater runoff -- and some community-based solutions. @soljourno
