Climate change is often seen as a communications problem, but how can communications become the answer? 

In the first part of the session, participants will discuss combating climate misinformation and ways to confront and tackle the increasing levels of politization of climate information faced in the United States. The second part of the session will look at different approaches needed to be taken on major projects that blend public and private sectors with government agencies, local groups and experts. 

The session will explore the role communications can play in unblocking infrastructure and delivering deployment faster.
