About
The Commission explored the role of climate scientists in contributing to public and policy discourse and decision-making on climate change, including how highly complex scientific research which deals with high levels of uncertainty and unpredictability can be effectively engaged with public and policy dialogue.聽聽
The Commission also examined the insights that scientific research and professional practice provide into how people process and assimilate information and how such knowledge offers pathways for climate scientists to achieve more effective engagement.聽聽
Finally, the Commission sought to identify the approaches that climate scientists can adopt to effectively communicate their messages and to make clear recommendations to climate scientists and to policy-makers about the most effective ways of communicating climate science.聽
The Commission鈥檚 activity included a one-day experimental event, 鈥楽eeing Yourself See鈥�, with a number of climate scientists to discover how they saw their role and their perspectives on the communication of climate science. 鈥�
