Executive editor
This paper demonstrates that working with science journalists, graphic artists, and using a daily format, can increase public knowledge of how the climate system works. It is transferable; geoscientists who are interested in public communication can make these connections and develop daily or weekly educational bites that will help the public understand the concerns and how they can address them.
Short summary
In this paper, we discuss the instrumental role of the press in informing and educating the public on the subject of climate science and climate change. We illustrate this using an example of a dissemination format called Weather Stories, published daily in one of the most read newspapers in Spain. The particularities of this journalistic format are described using a practical example of a relatively complex physical concept: the jet stream.
