MIT Webinar: Climate Reporting in America

Event Date: 
October 16, 2024

Each year, the MIT Climate Change Engagement Program brings together a cohort of journalists at local U.S. news outlets to produce deeply reported stories linking climate change to local concerns.

How can local and regional newsrooms help build understanding of climate solutions in every part of the country?

Join MIT's newest class of Environmental Solutions Journalism Fellows as they discuss their work on major reporting projects for news outlets across the United States, covering local implications of the transition to a clean energy economy in Pennsylvania, Texas, Utah and Oregon.

Special guest moderator Lagipoiva Cherelle Jackson, Director of Climate Journalism at the Solutions Journalism Network, will lead a conversation with the MIT fellows on the diverse audiences they engaged, how they connected climate solutions to local values and priorities, and the challenges and opportunities of their climate reporting.

This free webinar takes place Wednesday, October 16, 1:00-2:30 PM EDT.
