This handbook integrates lessons from the social sciences and humanities to more effectively make connections through issues, people, and things that everyday citizens care about. Readers will come away with an enhanced understanding that there is no 'silver bullet' to communications about climate change; instead, a 'silver buckshot' approach is needed, where strategies effectively reach different audiences in different context.</p> <ul> <li>Includes strategies that help people have productive conversations about climate change that involve listening and adapting rather than just trying to win an argument</li> <li>Bridges sectors and audiences, bringing together important material for undergraduate and graduate courses</li> <li>Shows the importance of being creative in communications about climate change in the twenty-first century - many businesses, institutions, and collectives can benefit from this, not just students and academics</li> </ul> <p><strong><a href="https://www.cambridge.org/us/academic/subjects/earth-and-environmental-science/environmental-policy-economics-and-law/creative-climate-communications-productive-pathways-science-policy-and-society?format=PB#contentsTabAnchor" rel="nofollow">Get your copy of the book here!</a></strong></p> <p>Learn more&nbsp;about the book from Max himself&nbsp;at the&nbsp;<strong><a href="https://www.boulderbookstore.net/event/maxwell-boykoff-creative-climate-communications" rel="nofollow">Boulder Bookstore&nbsp;on&nbsp;Sept 11</a></strong> as well as&nbsp;the <strong><a href="https://www.tatteredcover.com/event/max-boykoff-creative-climate-communications" rel="nofollow">Tattered Cover on Sept 21.</a></strong></p> <p>Max Boykoff is the Director of the Center for Science and Technology Policy, which is part of the Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences at the University of Colorado-Boulder.

In&nbsp;<em>The Wild and the Wicked</em>, Benjamin Hale adopts the opposite position — that much of the time nature can be bad — in order to show that even if nature is cruel, we still need to be environmentally diligent. Deftly weaving anecdote and philosophy, he shows that we don't need to love nature to be green. What really ought to be driving our environmentalism is our humanity, not nature's value.
