Expanding the Reach of Climate Solutions with Podcast Communication

This summer, I will be working with Climate Break, a podcast produced by UC Berkeley’s Center for Law, Energy, & the Environment (CLEE). My research project will focus on expanding the podcast’s impact by exploring strategies to broaden its audience and integrate its solution-oriented climate content into educational settings, such as high school environmental science classrooms. I will research effective distribution channels, identify potential funders who support environmental and climate literacy, and develop outreach approaches to connect with new listeners. Alongside these efforts, I will contribute to core production tasks, including script-writing, episode topic research, and guest interviews, while honing my skills in science communication and research. Through this work, I aim to help Climate Break empower audiences with accessible, actionable sustainability solutions and support public engagement with climate law and policy.

Message To Sponsor

Thank you so much for this incredible opportunity. I hope to pursue a career in climate communication, so I could not think of a better way to spend my summer. My work with Climate Break has been so rewarding, and I am looking forward to using this time to broaden the podcast's reach and help distribute it as educational content.
