Climate Storytelling for Climate Action

This seminar explores climate stories to ask how they can lead to meaningful action. Organized in three parts, the class encourages participants to document their climate stories; investigates micronarratives, documentary films, and one novel (of your choice); and leads to the development of a set of stories documenting climate impacts in the Princeton community. Working in tandem with the project My Climate Story, the course may include one afternoon field trip to NPR studios in Philadelphia. Between climate communications and climate arts, this seminar creates publicly engaged work.
