Two media manuals on the issue of energy conservation in building sector were developed by the CMS. The idea behind this exercise was to provide a quick overview of climate change science and evidence at the global and national levels and also discuss response to climate change at international, national and state levels so that journalists can make necessary connections. The guide books also introduce to journalists how climate change is affecting communities (agriculture, water resources and livelihoods) and some key initiatives on mitigation and adaption in the partner states. Finally, the books deal with approach and techniques to reporting climate change with live examples of good and bad news reports.
