[font size=4]Experts, charities, the media and government confuse the public by speaking different languages on climate change,
a new study says.[/font]
[font size=3]The research team focussed on Colombia and likened climate change communication to a broken phone.
They said information from the government was often presented to the public in a very technical way and rarely included any type of call to action.
Meanwhile, academics rarely discussed the issues with people outside academia, and messages from non-profit organisations were lost in the middle of the information agenda of traditional media.
