Zombies, Sports, and Cola: Implications For Communicating Extreme Weather and Climate Change
In this oddly-titled lecture, Dr. Shepherd will explore contemporary issues of weather and climate change from his lens as a scientist, professor, and communicator. He explores, in an accessible and enjoyable manner, the barriers associated with how people consume complex science topics. You will also walk away with a new knowledge about extreme weather and climate change. And he promises the title will make sense at the end.
*This Keynote address was given at Park Pride's 20th Annual Parks & Greenspace Conference, themed "The New Case for Parks," held virtually on Tuesday, May 4, 2021.
