Talking about climate change: How to enhance trust with forestry audiences

Talking about climate change: How to enhance trust with forestry audiences Conducting a climate change presentation or workshop can be uncomfortable for adult educators because they do not want to alienate audiences or diminish their credibility among those who doubt climate change is a problem.
