Come to the Climate Crisis Solutions Meeting Tuesday, December 5th beginning at 6:30 p.m. in Howson Hall.

 
 
 
 
High points:
 
The Fifth National Climate Assessment, released earlier this month, is chock full of good news (with, yes, a hefty helping of not-so-good news packed within it, too.)  This latest assessment – the biggest and boldest yet – is a document that is primed for engagement, action, and impact.
 
 “Good news” column, is the report’s assessment of the state of climate action across the nation. It’s growing quickly nation-wide 32% increase in city and state-level adaptation plans and actions since the last assessment was published in 2018; and every state has added new state-level mitigation activities since then as well.
 
There are a vast array of personal solutions out there you can adopt, but figuring out where to start can be overwhelming. Here is a framework that Science Moms provides: you can SWAP dirty energy for clean energy in your lives, you can SHARE facts, concerns, and solutions with family and friends, and you can SPEAK UP to share your climate concerns with policymakers. But try to increase your ambition over time, on your own path towards our just and stable climate future.
