When it comes to understanding climate solutions, firsthand stories from local communities experiencing climate impacts are often easier to grasp than global data points. This panel explores the importance of local storytelling in conveying climate change and sustainability. We'll examine how regional narratives connect with national-level discussions. From hometowns featured in mainstream entertainment to the pathways for local community storytellers to reach a national audience, we'll also discuss the tools local reporters use to frame climate information. Join us as we highlight how climate solutions hit close to home.
