Earth to Sky is partnering with the Guana Tolomato Matanzas National Estuarine Research Reserve (GTM Research Reserve) to provide a two-day pre-conference virtual workshop, November 5-6, 2020. The workshop is offered in association with the National Association for Interpretation 's annual conference.
Registration deadline: 11/01/2020
The highly interactive workshop will emphasize experiential learning in a collegial, resource-rich environment with peers and scientists.
Together we will
- Explore the science and interpretation of global climate change through the lens of local examples drawn at the GTM Research Reserve
- Hear from scientists, up to date credible information about our planet’s climate system and how human activity is resulting in global warming
- Learn about and sample selected NASA visual resources and hands-on activities for interpreters
- Take a virtual field trip to learn about research on climate-driven changes at the GTM Research Reserve
- Explore effective interpretive strategies and techniques for communicating climate change in a hopeful way
- Exchange ideas about how to apply workshop content in interpretive efforts
- Begin developing the seed of a climate interpretation program/product
Participants will leave with a beginning plan for interpreting climate change in their own work location, armed with an abundance of NASA and NPS resources for climate change communication.
