The Society of Environmental Journalists will host a free, one-hour webinar at noon ET Thursday, April 2 to discuss lessons learned from the coronavirus pandemic and how that could inform journalists' coverage of environmental and health crises.
From the webinar site: "Global action to tackle climate change and covid-19 have both been thwarted by a lack of political will and impeded by misinformation. How can journalists inform their audiences in ways that support constructive decision-making rather than apathy or paralysis? How should journalists respond when misinformation comes directly from policymakers or major news networks? And how will changes in our approach to crises and misinformation factor into our coverage of these issues as we approach the 2020 election?"
