Yale Climate Connections provides climate news in Spanish
YCC En Español, a news site run by Yale Climate Connections, provides news and information about climate change and extreme weather events in Spanish to Latino and Hispanic communities. Launched in September 2022, YCC EnEspañol has published more than 90 articles and garnered more than 500,000 page views.
YCC is seeking to deepen its relationship with readers to become a trusted site on climate science and solutions among Spanish speakers. The site has brought in four Spanish-speaking contributors, including an atmospheric scientist based at the University of Puerto Rico, and will soon begin publishing articles written originally in Spanish and some content only for Spanish-speaking readers.
