Help Support NNOCCI's Mission 

Donate%20Today.png

In late January, NNOCCI lost our sole grant funding. Despite this, we have been working hard to keep moving forward. While we will continue with our planned programming, and seek out new funding opportunities (including a recent grant submission for the National Academies), we recognize that we must find independent funding opportunities to help NNOCCI in its mission to change the national discourse on climate change. 

You can help us continue our mission to make climate communication more hopeful, solutions-focused, and community-driven by donating today.

We appreciate any and all support, and encourage you to share the donation link with anyone who may be interested in sustaining our important work.

Yale Climate Change Communication Webinar

Yale Program on Climate Change Communication recently hosted a webinar, Understanding & Countering Climate Change Misinformation and Disinformation--this includes a great conversation on Spanish language disinformation, groups that are more susceptible misinformation, and how climate communicators can respond.
