Join Peterson and fellow panelists for an engaging and interactive presentation on storytelling at the 10th Annual Citizens Climate International Conference in Washington, DC
Storytelling is a skill we learn and hone. In doing effective climate advocacy, we tell simple but powerful stories that lead to deeper understanding, curiosity, and action. Panelists will share examples of climate change related stories.
You will hear stories about their districts and their identities. They will also tell stories about the benefits of carbon fee and dividend. The audience will then get the chance to work on their own two minute stories. These can then be used for lobbying, public speaking, in social settings, and in print media.
