Albertans Teachers: Faith Groups and Health Professionals

albertans teachers: This means people's climate change perceptions are being increasingly driven by divisive political agendas rather than science and concern for our collective welfare, according to Rabble. Over the past year, the Alberta Narratives Project gathered input from a broad range of Albertans teachers, faith groups, health professionals, farmers, artists, industry, environmentalists, etc. to better understand how they feel about public discourse on global warming. The greatest predictor of people's outlook is political affiliation. Participants said they want less blame and a more open, balanced and respectful conversation. No one is speaking to them, using language that reflects their values and identity. Many don't see themselves in the conversation at all. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
