“Film Screening & Discussion: True False Hot Cold” (Yale Program on Climate Change Communication)

Please join the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication (YPCCC) and the Environmental Film Festival at Yale (EFFY) on Monday, September 9, 6-8pm in Burke Auditorium, Kroon Hall, 195 Prospect St., New Haven for a film screening and discussion about climate change, belief, and talking with people you don’t agree with. Food will be provided.

 

True False Hot Cold is an award-winning documentary series exploring how to build a more cohesive society, through the lens of climate opinions. Filmed over 3 months in the county in Utah with some of the least belief in climate change in the USA, each short episode discusses a new topic, from religion, to the coal and cattle industries, to belief formation and more. Instead of focusing on divisions, the series uses candid interviews with local residents, and intimate slice-of-life vignettes, to offer ideas about how to build bridges between people who have very different identities and beliefs. During the event we will punctuate episode screenings with open conversation amongst the audience, filmmaker Ben Stillerman, and the moderator, Dr. Matthew Goldberg, Director of Experimental Research at the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication.
