Just watched the recording of @KHayhoe's #TalkingClimateScience talk at #SciWri21 - it was incredible, and the most important talk I've seen in a long time! It's relevant to all science writers, not just those covering the climate beat. (Climate change affects everything!)
Loved talking climate, efficacy and hope with #SciWri21 this afternoon. Asked, "how do you feel about climate change in one word?" here's the answers you gave when we began ... and at the end. #TalkingClimateScience

Another gem from @KHayhoe (paraphrased):
"We want to hear good news about the millions of hands on the boulder, because that makes us feel that we can add our hands to the boulder, too."
Advocating for solutions journalism there. #TalkingClimateScience #SciWri21
Yeah, the guilt for not publishing more stories on climate change is strong for me right now. #SciWri21 #TalkingClimateScience
In this science writer audience, the most common response to "I care about climate change because I am a [blank]" is "human." That's the 1st word that popped into my mind, too. #TalkingClimateScience #SciWri21
2050 is a long time from now. Decrease the psychological distance by talking about 2021, says @KHayhoe. Pay attention to values. Talk re: how climate change affects national security, personal liberty, Christian faith, etc. #TalkingClimateScience #SciWri21
"We need to decrease the psychological distance by telling stories about real people" -@KHayhoe at #TalkingClimateScience #SciWri21
In general, fear + anxiety cause ppl to freeze, withdraw, & give up (inaction). @KHayhoe is quoting neuroscientist Tali Sharot. #SciWri21 #TalkingClimateScience
People often listen to information but don't absorb recommendations. "Elite cues" influence concern levels, but scientists sharing facts have only a minor effect, #TalkingClimateScience #SciWri21
Right now at #SciWri21: CASW #PatruskyLecture presented by @ScienceWriting: #TalkingClimateScience featuring @KHayhoe
Now we're going through data from the Yale Opinion Maps...People believe climate change is happening but less likely that it'll harm them personally. This is "psychological distance."
