Let Science Speak Partners With The Weather Channel to Give Scientists Their Say

Generous Films, Let Science Speak
The highly acclaimed short documentary series, Let Science Speak, recently announced its partnership with The Weather Channel television network to make environmental scientist voices heard across America. The Weather Channel is broadcasting Let Science Speak and interviewing participating scientists from the series on its weekend show, Weekend Recharge, in addition to amplifying the series across its social media properties, including @weatherchannel, @WeatherGeeks and @Pattern Twitter handles.

Let Science Speak, produced by Generous Films, is a direct response to the increasing efforts to suppress environmental science and silence scientists. Each episode leverages intimate storytelling to humanize scientists, connecting the work they do on issues like climate change with the personal values that most Americans can relate to, including innovation, faith, family and civic duty.

“The Weather Channel is a science-based network that seeks to shine a light on the truth about weather and the environment. We are thrilled to partner with Let Science Speak and give scientists a critical voice on the issues that impact our daily lives and weather patterns,” said Nora Zimmett, senior vice president, content and programming at The Weather Channel. “By amplifying their voices and thoughtful storytelling, we hope to continue advancing the public’s understanding of climate change and its impact on our world.”

Featured scientists include Dr. Alan Townsend of Colorado College, Dr. Katharine Hayhoe of Texas Tech, Dr. Jacquelyn Gill of the University of Maine, Dr. Dawn Wright of Esri, Dr. Jonathan Foley of Project Drawdown, and Dr. Marshall Shepherd of the University of Georgia and The Weather Channel.

Named “TV News Brand of the Year” for eight years in a row by Harris Poll, The Weather Channel reached almost 80 million U.S. households in 2017 and is one of the few networks that posted year-over-year audience growth. While Americans generally rely on The Weather Channel for forecasts and breaking severe weather news coverage, they increasingly turn to the network for explanations behind extreme weather events, including climate change.

“The Weather Channel has established itself as the leading media voice for environmental scientists and the consequences of human-caused climate change,” said Christine Arena, creator and executive producer of Let Science Speak. “I am thrilled to be partnering with them to reach a wide swath of Americans who might not otherwise see our content.”
