Charting a Course in the Sea of Climate Misinformation
Event Details
The global climate emergency is the greatest threat to our collective future, and science and research play a critical role in moving us forward with sustainable solutions. From rising urban temperatures and flooding streets, to water bans and poor air quality, we see and feel the effects of our changing climate in our own communities. We want to act, but with so much information and misinformation, how do we know where to start and who to trust?
Join the University of Waterloo and the Waterloo Climate Institute for a conversation on how we find trusted information on climate action in a sea of misinformation. We’ll discuss ways to overcome the confusing and overwhelming options for climate action and build trust in climate science so that we can build resilient communities and live better together.
This free community lecture is part of a series launched by the Trust in Research Undertaken in Science and Technology (TRuST) scholarly network at the University of Waterloo.
