Makers of the blockbuster Netflix movie Don't Look Up featuring Leonardo DiCaprio, elicited the help of climate scientists in the making of the movie as well as an online climate platform to guide questions and efforts that the film may inspire. One of the experts helping to advise these efforts was our very own Department of Environmental Studies Chair, Max Boykoff. Professor Boykoff studies climate communications, including what strategies work best to find common ground and galvanize collective action. To learn more about Professor Boykoff's work, look for his book Creative (Climate) Communications: Productive Pathways for Science, Policy and Society.
