Not exact matches

I confess that I have become somewhat blasé about the range of exciting — I think revolutionary is probably more accurate — technologies that we are rolling out today: our work in genomics and its translation into varieties that are reaching poor farmers today; our innovative integration of long — term and multilocation trials with crop models and modern IT and communications technology to reach farmers in ways we never even imagined five years ago; our vision to create a C4 rice and see to it that Golden Rice reaches poor and hungry children; maintaining productivity gains in the face of dynamic pests and pathogens; understanding the nature of the rice grain and what makes for good quality; our many efforts to change the way rice is grown to meet the challenges of changing rural economies, changing societies, and a changing climate; and, our extraordinary array of partnerships that has placed us at the forefront of the CGIAR change process through the Global Rice Science Partnership.

The essential idea is not to replicate the 2000 National Assessment in its particulars, but rather to move forward with a strong, updated, coordinated, integrative effort, employing the method of having climate scientists and other experts communicate directly with policymakers and other stakeholders, geographical region - by - region, and socioeconomic sector - by - sector, to diagnose vulnerabilities and develop response strategies, without political interference with free and open communication.

It took very little effort at all to realize that a lot of what passes as «official» or even «unofficial» communication from the climate establishment wasn't even thin, it was see - thru.

By bridging the communications gap between scientists, decision makers, and the public, this information can supplement local and state efforts to address the changing climate.

As Chapter 1 discusses in detail, environmental groups as mostly 501C3 organizations were allowed to spend unlimited sums on public education which includes advertising and communication efforts advocating generally for a need for action on climate change or a general cap on emissions.

This approach leads to an emphasis on addressing climate change by changing individual behavior via financial incentives or disincentives or through various communications efforts aimed at promoting lifestyle changes that reduce carbon emissions.

There is also a growing body of literature which suggests that the aggressive efforts by climate deniers have adversely affected the communication and direction of climate research (Brysse, Oreskes, O'Reilly, & Oppenheimer, 2013; Freudenburg & Muselli, 2010; Lewandowsky, Oreskes, Risbey, Newell, & Smithson, 2013), and allegations of defamation have led to the re-examination of one of the first author's papers to eliminate legal risks that is ongoing at the time of this writing (Lewandowsky, Cook, et al., 2013).

He is the recipient of the inaugural AGU Climate Communication Prize for his efforts at Realclimate.

Taking a neutral stance at this point on rehashed work from «NIPCC» (Fred Singer and friends), well known for serial, serious errors in overall interpretation, analysis and communication of the science and transparent but largely unexamined ideological bias at play in their playground «reports» — never mind suggesting that this kind of effort «competes» with the work of the world's climate scientists and the 2,500 multidisciplinary specialists contributing to IPCC reports combined with the tens of thousands of additional scientists and many others who raise real questions that result from reading, reviewing, evaluating and evolving the information in both IPCC summaries and domestic science and discussion of the science, knowledgeably and in good faith and with open identification of the nature of the social and political issues — is just not credible.

Alex Epstein speaks to the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers (CAPP) in an effort to help Canadian fossil fuel companies reframe climate - related communications tactics to the public.

In a lame effort to fill out the TRNN video with other material which looked like fossil fuel industry orchestrating things, a line from the American Petroleum Institute's 1998 leaked «Global Climate Science Communications Team» memo was highlighted, while the narrator read it: «Victory will be achieved when average citizens understand uncertainties in climate science.Climate Science Communications Team» memo was highlighted, while the narrator read it: «Victory will be achieved when average citizens understand uncertainties in climate science.climate science.»

... The coordinated tactics of the climate denial network, Brulle's report states, «span a wide range of activities, including political lobbying, contributions to political candidates, and a large number of communication and media efforts that aim at undermining climate science.»

Despite that goal — and recent efforts to overhaul IPCC's communications strategy — the latest climate - science summaries are harder than ever to digest, according to a new analysis.

about Climate Communication and Engagement Efforts: The Landscape of Approaches and Strategies

Anthony Leiserowitz, director of the Yale Project on Climate Change Communication, attributes this decline to five factors: The economic collapse, a severe decrease in media coverage, weather events like «Snowmaggedon,» the efforts of the «denial industry» (the network of industry - funded think tanks and political advocacy groups that push skeptic views), and the «ClimateGate» debacle.
