Abstract
This chapter explores finding and developing different registers to convey environmental and climate messages to people with different levels of understanding and interest, both inside and outside educational settings. Finding entry points for communicating in multiple ways is more effective than only one or two strategies. Teaching and communication smarts mean gathering ideas from everyone—above us, below us, around us. The teacher is also the learner. This allows, even requires, revitalising and updating our own appreciation and connections to the environment. How do we get across the seriousness of climate change yet also spur people to action not fatalism?
