Environmental Science and Public Policy

UND Faculty Researchers: Rebecca Romsdahl

Assessing National Discourse and Local Governance Framing of Climate Change for Adaptation in the United Kingdom

"Frames trump facts." This simple quote, with credit to George Lakoff, provides a concise summary of this research. The research is focused on communication at the interface of environmental science and public policy, including comparative analysis of local government adaptation planning for climate change impacts, narrative framing in environmental policymaking and in sustainability actions, collaboration between government and stakeholders in public land management, and decision support for climate policy.
