Beat Academy: Tracking Climate Change Rollbacks

How do you connect large-scale federal policy changes to the costs and impacts your readers care about most?

With support from the Joyce Foundation, Poynter and the Institute for Journalism and Natural Resources have teamed up to help you explore the effects of the latest policy shifts at the local level in a free webinar at 1-2:15 p.m. Eastern on Thursday, Oct. 16.

Need to track what projects and programs in your state or municipality are underway, at risk, or cancelled? The Clean Economy Tracker from Atlas Public Policy breaks down the details. We’ll walk you through how to use the tool — using examples from Great Lakes states — and talk with journalists who have turned the information it provided into stories and broader coverage.

We’ll also spend time on steps states are taking to chart their own climate change course apart from federal policies.

Learn how to track these unprecedented federal changes and cover how they impact your community in our hands-on training.

Enroll as soon as you know you’re interested. Tune in live on Oct. 16 to get your questions answered. Replay access will be available to reference any time you need it.
