Overview<\/h2>\n\n

\n

Journalists and news media have a critical role to play in the fight against climate change. Quality climate reportage has the power to build dialogue, encourage behavioural shifts, highlight impacted communities and present reliable information to influence policy decisions that can help build resilience of the population.  

Edition 1.0 of Climate Stories by Greenpeace India calls upon independent journalists who can present untold stories of climate impact, devastation and resilience around India\u2019s   (1) agriculture communities and food systems (2) extreme weather events in cities<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Climate change<\/a> and related events continue to ravage communities, pushing more people into poverty, drastically impacting lives, livelihoods, nutrition security, biodiversity and the overall quality of life of present and future generations. It is imperative to tell these stories in order to build a strong community of climate aware citizens. Climate Stories will work with select independent journalists to tell these crucial stories of human suffering and resilience to strengthen the people\u2019s movement against climate change.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
