Communicating climate change is an important task: climate communication research shows that there are many different barriers to understanding and acting on climate change. Many climate communication strategies, focus on creating connections between the reader and the tangible impacts of climate change on themselves or local communities. On WikiProject climate change, we recommend that editors start with some of the light-weight or intermediate tasks below, as you get familiar with editing about climate change.
In particular, we recommend starting on tasks that are not heavily focused on the science of climate change. Many of Wikipedia's needs don't require deep understanding of science or technology. For instance, Wikipedia has major gaps in terms of covering adaptation to climate change and the psychological and sociological aspects of the climate change issue.
