Changing Climate Communications (2019 Design Matters Conference)

Organization: 
Amy Longsworth, Boston Green Ribbon Commission; William Spitzer, New England Aquarium

The Boston Green Ribbon Commission (GRC) is busy creating a roadmap of practical steps to de-carbonize energy and build climate resiliency. Organized around sector-based working groups for higher education, healthcare, and commercial real estate, in 2017, the GRC recognized the need to pioneer a fourth sector comprising Boston’s cultural institutions; effective climate communications and relevant programming were at the top of the list of opportunities. Along with William Spitzer of the New England Aquarium, this session unpacks a strategy for uniting disparate cultural organizations, spurring them to action, and sharing data and guidance about climate messaging strategies that cut through to general audiences.
