As teachers face barriers to communicating climate science, new ways of communicating and teaching are needed. This study explored new ways to educate about climate change while addressing the literature gap for how sound can communicate information about climate change and be used to increase learning and engagement. The purpose was to learn to what extent music can enhance online interventions about climate change by comparing learning and engagement for college students participating in an online climate change educational intervention with or without music. The study, in addressing the utilization of music to educate about climate change, may pave the way for future research and pedagogical decisions on the use of music in climate change education interventions. Suggested areas for future research include the use of short interventions with or without music in the context of long-term interventions and the role of short interventions with or without music in audience engagement with climate change, possibly in informal learning settings.
