.@JWhitePubRadio Cool 1A today on what people can do re climate change. @_rachelmcdevitt of @StateImpactPA just did a short-video series answering that very question; we hear it a lot in our climate solutions work. stateimpact.npr.org/pennsylv… @neelaeast @CoveringClimate @soljourno
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: stateimpact.npr.org/pennsylv… @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. stateimpact.npr.org/pennsylv…
In York, our listening session found that people who might not have a lot in common are nevertheless linked through their experiences with climate change. stateimpact.npr.org/pennsylv… @ydrcom @shippensburgU @FandMPoll @voz_central @SankofaAATC @StateImpactPA @soljourno
@ClimateInPA is proud to receive a grant to support our theater production, led by @SankofaAATC & scheduled for October! Watch for details! ritaallen.org/stories/rita-a… partners: @ydrcom @shippensburgU @FandMPoll @StateImpactPA @WITF qhubonews.com @LaVozLatinaPa @soljourno
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. stateimpact.npr.org/pennsylv… @soljourno
The intersection of climate in Pa.: A high-emitting coal plant will shut down, but cost people their jobs. stateimpact.npr.org/pennsylv…
This is exactly what we're trying to do at climatesolutionspa.org/
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

.@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.
