Learn how to bring global issues down to a local level and engage your audience with the most important story of our time
Whether it is people displaced by natural disasters or changes in the world economy, stories about the climate crisis are now part of every beat.
To help reporters better understand the growing emergency, The International Center for Journalists (ICFJ) organised a webinar with a stellar lineup of journalists from The Washington Post, Bloomberg, NPR and Atmos. They discussed the most important points that we need to pay attention to when reporting on this important topic. Writer Devin Windelspecht summed them up in this article.
"Reminding readers of how people today are experiencing those impacts and whose lives are devastated by it is a really important part of the story — stepping away from just numbers and facts and really trying to tug at people’s heartstrings," said Yessenia Funes, the climate director at Atmos, quoted in the piece.
