        *New Climate Communications Initiative/
        /*

/Climate Voices -- Science Speakers Network/ will be launched this 
spring as a new initiative of the University Corporation for Atmospheric 
Research (UCAR) and the United Nations Foundation.  The goal is to bring 
scientists and their local communities together for real dialogue on 
climate science that speaks to citizens' current and future well-being 
and responsibility as members of a community and democracy.

Materials for context-setting presentations will be offered as will 
coaching regarding how to begin conversations about climate change with 
fellow citizens.  Venues for such conversations will be local 
institutions such as service organizations (Rotary, etc.), faith-based 
institutions, chambers of commerce, etc.

*If you are interested in volunteering for this network, please go to 
climatevoices.org <http://climatevoices.org/> and create a profile.*  
Profiles will "go public" when the full web site is launched in early 
April.  Once you create a profile, you will be kept up to date on 
Climate Voices progress including construction of the full web site, 
availability of presentation materials, webinar coaching, and plans for 
project launch.

For any questions, please contact: Cindy Schmidt (UCAR),
