\begin{abstract}
Hi reddit! This month the UN is holding its Climate Action Summit, it is
New York City's Climate Week next week, today is the Global Climate
Strike, earlier this month was the Asia Pacific Climate Week, and there
are many more local events happening. Since climate change is in the
news a lot let's talk about it! We're a panel of experts who study and
communicate about climate change's causes, impacts, and solutions, and
we're here to answer your questions about it! Is there something about
the science of climate change you never felt you fully understood?
Questions about a claim you saw online or on the news? Want to better
understand why you should care and how it will impact you? Or do you
just need tips for talking to your family about climate change at
Thanksgiving this year? We can help! Here are some general resources for
you to explore and learn about the climate: AAAS just released a report
with case studies and videos of how communities and companies (and
individuals) in the US are working with scientists to respond to climate
change called ``How We Respond.'' NASA: Vital Signs of the Planet
National Academies of Sciences: Climate Change Evidence and Causes
National Geographic: Seven things to know about Climate Change Today's
guests are: Emily Cloyd (u/BotanyAndDragons): I'm the director for the
American Association for the Advancement of Science~Center for Public
Engagement with Science and Technology, where I oversee programs
including~How We Respond: Community Responses to Climate Change~(just
released!), the~Leshner Leadership Institute, and the~AAAS IF/THEN
Ambassadors, and study best practices for~science
communication~and~policy engagement. Prior to joining AAAS, I
led~engagement and outreach~for the~Third National Climate Assessment,
served as a~Knauss Marine Policy Fellow~at the~National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration, and studied~the use of ecological models in
Great Lakes management. I hold a Master's in Conservation Biology (SUNY
College of Environmental Science and Forestry) and a Bachelor's in Plant
Biology (University of Michigan), am always up for a paddle (especially
if it is in a dragon boat), and last year hiked the Tour du Mont Blanc.
Jeff Dukes (u/Jeff\_Dukes): My research generally examines how plants
and ecosystems respond to a~changing environment, focusing on topics
from invasive species to climate~change. Much of my~experimental work
seeks to inform and improve climate~models. The center I direct has been
leading the Indiana Climate Change Impacts Assessment (INCCIA); that's
available at IndianaClimate.org. You can find more information about me
at~https://web.ics.purdue.edu/\textasciitilde{}jsdukes/lab/index.html,
and more information about the Purdue Climate Change Research Center
at~http://purdue.edu/climate. Hussein R. Sayani (u/Hussein\_Sayani): I'm
a climate scientist at the School of Earth and Atmospheric Science at
Georgia Institute of Technology.~I develop records of past ocean
temperature, salinity, and wind~variability in the tropical Pacific by
measuring changes in the chemistry of fossil corals. These past climate
records~allow us to understand past climate changes in the tropical
Pacific, a region that profoundly influences temperature and rainfall
patterns around the planet, so that we can improve future~predictions of
global and regional climate change.~ Jessica Moerman
(u/Jessica\_Moerman): Hi reddit! My name is Jessica Moerman and I study
how climate changed in the past - before we had weather stations. How
you might ask? I study the chemical fingerprints of geologic archives
like cave stalagmites, lake sediments, and ancient soil deposits to
discover how temperature and rainfall varied over the last several ice
age cycles. I have a Ph.D. in Earth and Atmospheric Sciences from the
Georgia Institute of Technology and have conducted research at Johns
Hopkins University, University of Michigan, and the Smithsonian National
Museum of Natural History. I am now a AAAS Science and Technology Policy
Fellow working on climate and environmental issues.~ Our guests will be
joining us throughout the day (primarily in the afternoon Eastern Time)
to answer your questions and discuss!%
