The essay examines various communication strategies for advocating acceptance of
climate science in the face of psychological and ideological impediments. It surveys
some key literature, offers case studies of Lego, Shell, Greenpeace, Edelman, and
public relations, and culminates with a hortatory logic based on the recent Papal
encyclical. The focus is on issues pertaining to the United States but with examples and ideas from elsewhere.
