Blog Post #2 on research topic/issue with tentative 10 sources and Peer Response
The topic that I have landed on is The Communication of Scientific Findings Related to Climate Change to the General Public." While looking for sources for my topic, I realized that there are less sources about it than I would have thought. I also noticed that most of the sources I found are from the past 25 years. So it is clearly a newly sprouted topic in the technical communication/communication community. I think that this is a good thing because that means that we are going to start talking about it more and more which I deem definitely necessary. The 10 tentative sources I found cover a variety of different methods of communicating climate change science to the public.
