Year of Climate Action
Climate Challenge:Â Accepted
Climate change remains, in a world crowded with problems, this generation’s defining challenge. At º£½Ç»»ÆÞ we embrace such challenges. º£½Ç»»ÆÞ is committed to being a world leader in sustainability education, campus action, and knowledge production.
The 2022 Year of Climate Action will be designed to catapult º£½Ç»»ÆÞ to new levels of self-reflection, outreach, and engagement with climate change as an issue and with the communities that climate change touches.
The year will be based around programming and activities designed to strengthen and showcase º£½Ç»»ÆÞ’s commitment to meaningful action on climate change. º£½Ç»»ÆÞ is already deeply committed to and engaged with climate action. The year of climate action, to catalyze a changing of hearts on our campus and within the communities with which we work, will take advantage of historic and contemporary strengths in social activism and community-oriented research. º£½Ç»»ÆÞ is also uniquely positioned for innovation at the intersections between and among the arts, science, and policy, inflected by a clear headed focus on justice and equity considerations.
