Connecting the Dots between Climate Change & Our Health, Tuesday, July 29, 12pm-1pm, hosted by the NYS Public Health Association
Register: https://www.nyspha.org/event-6260879
This presentation will describe some of the ways that climate change is already impacting and harming people’s health. These climate-health impacts also impose a cost burden that totals in the billions, yet health is almost never included among the costs of climate change that society is expected to bear. People can take positive steps to protect their health from climate change’s harmful effect, avoiding the related costs and preserving community well-being. Besides individual-level protection, being informed and active in demanding policies that create healthier, more equitable, secure communities is essential.
Learning Objectives:
Following this session, participants will be able to:
Describe three ways that climate change is already affecting the environment in ways that can harm human health.
Name three types of health-related costs from climate-sensitive extreme weather and other climate change-fueled events.
List two strategies that can help individuals, families, or communities limit the health harms and related costs they experience under a changing climate.

About this Event
Target Audience: Grades 6-8, 9-12, Educators, the Public
Regenerative agriculture has the potential to act as a carbon sink and can be a key strategy to mitigate climate change, but must also be combined with other emissions reductions actions. Join us to take a look at farming strategies that can enhance soil health, foster biodiversity, reduce erosion, increase yields, increase drought resilience, and more, all while sequestering carbon in the soil. Finally, consider the relationship between climate change and agriculture -- while a changing climate puts new pressures on farmers, farming can also be a powerful part of the solution.

How might we support healthier ways of living, learning and leading?
Whether it's a team, an organisation, our families or any other system, the same principles apply when thinking about healthy systems: for a system to be working well, it requires the individual flourishing of all of its members, and strong, supportive relationships between each of the parts. But what does that look like in practice?
Join ThoughtBox Education UK for this four-part leadership course where they will welcome four 'guest faculty' - the Hawk, Tree, Salmon and Wolf - to guide the learning and help shape a healthier form of leadership for a VUCA (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, and Ambiguity) world.
100% of those who joined a prior workshop and shared their feedback said that they'd recommend the course. It's been hugely energising to learn how this nature-led leadership programme has been transforming people's leadership strategies - from Headteachers and Deputy Heads, to Founders, Directors and Programme Managers.
This 4 week online course (4 x 2 hours) costs £495 per person - including all course materials. Sliding scale fee available upon request.

How can we best equip the next generation with an understanding of climate science and the motivation and practical skills needed to create healthy, thriving communities? K–12 climate education is essential to providing students with the critical thinking and problem-solving skills they need to address the impacts of climate change, now and in the future. Featuring success stories and lessons learned in state-level climate education policy efforts, this panel will highlight three different approaches to promote climate literacy:
Weaving climate education curriculum across standards and subject matter,
Providing professional development in climate education to teachers, and
Establishing Offices of Climate Education in state agencies and/or hiring dedicated personnel to address implementation.
Join us to learn more about how you, your colleagues, or your organization can help support robust climate education policies in your state and meaningfully put them into practice. Through this work, we can strengthen our education systems to meet the needs of our changing world and help create a better future for everyone.

Unnaming Climate: Authoritarianism, Collective Trauma & Imperfect Solidarity, Thursday, May 8, 2025 8:00 PM 9:30 PM EST, hosted by the Climate Psychology Alliance of North America
Register: https://tinyurl.com/46dxpj2h
The speakers will address collective trauma and the polycrisis. Moderated by Sarah Jaquette Ray, they will discuss how the climate crisis has been mobilized in service of authoritarian nationalism, anti-immigrant xenophobia and misogyny.
Through an interview format, our speakers will explore a range of questions: how we’ve gone from the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) to this moment, where the right wing has decisive power? How do concepts of climate distress, alienation, collective trauma, identity and identification help us understand the emotional dynamics of this moment? How do anti-immigrant and misogyny arise within climate change or environmental discourse? And perhaps most importantly, how do we stay open, build connection and support a solidarity based movement, imperfect as those solidarities may be?
This event will include a still-updating handful of influential speakers discussing how did we get here and what do we do?
Meet the speakers
-Finn Does (UC Berkeley, '28 and a Climate Justice Organizer, Environmental Educator, & Climate Mental Health Advocate) is student-organizer, fighting for climate literate schools, a Green New Deal and to make climate action a part of American identity. He's focused on addressing the climate emergency through youth inclusion, worker rights, and accessible solution-framed climate communications. He's concerned about climate change as a threat-multiplier, crisis of communication, economic depressor, mobility and international security issue, and an ever intensifying psychological storm. He was co-chair of the Bay Area Youth Climate Summit, for which he is now an advisor.
-Dr. Joseph A. Henderson is an educational anthropologist specializing in environmental and climate change education. His research explores how sociocultural, political, and geographic factors shape climate change teaching and learning. He holds faculty appointments at the University of Vermont and Paul Smith’s College of the Adirondacks. His current research focuses on how climate change education is implemented across federated education systems, and he contributes to this work as a member of the Monitoring and Evaluating Climate Communication and Education (MECCE) Project. Additionally, he investigates the relationship between shifting gender norms in environmental education and broader social trends worldwide
-Dr. Nikki Hoskins, MDiv., PhD has been teaching at the Harvard Divinity School since 2024. Her work attends to Christian histories of colonial, racial, and environmental domination. With the support of the Louisville Institute’s First Book Grant for Scholars of Color, Hoskins is completing a book manuscript, “Blackness Weathered: Decolonial Ethics for the Earth,” where she researches the religious and ecological practices of Black women in Chicago’s Altgeld Gardens, an area sociologists identify as one of the most egregious cases of environmental racism in the U.S. Hoskins is a member of the Society for the Study of Black Religion, the Society of Christian Ethics, and on the editorial board of Black Women and Religious Cultures. She has earned several fellowships for her graduate research, including the Charlotte W. Newcombe Fellowship, the Louisville Institute Fellowship, and the Forum for Theological Education Fellowship.
-Dr. Sarah Jaquette Ray (she/her) is a professor and chair of the Environmental Studies Department at Cal Poly Humboldt. She works at the intersection of social justice and climate emotions, particularly among youth activists and in higher education. Ray is author of two books, The Ecological Other: Environmental Exclusion in American Culture (Arizona, 2013), on the emotion of disgust in environmentalism and its implications for social justice, and A Field Guide to Climate Anxiety: How to Keep Your Cool on a Warming Planet (California, 2020), an existential toolkit for the climate generation. She has co-edited multiple volumes bridging social justice and environmentalism, including Latinx Environmentalisms: Justice, Place, and the Decolonial, and Disability Studies & the Environmental Humanities. Another on how to center the big emotions of climate change in the classroom is The Existential Toolkit for Climate Justice Educators: How to Teach in a Burning World (UC Press, 2024).
-Dr. Jade S. Sasser is Associate Professor in the Departments of Gender & Sexuality Studies and Society, Environment, and Health Equity at the University of California, Riverside. She received her PhD in Environmental Science, Policy, and Management from the University of California, Berkeley. Her work explores how environmental problems such as climate change and toxic exposures intersect with reproductive bodies, health, and rights. Her first book, On Infertile Ground: Population Control and Women’s Rights in the Era of Climate Change, was published in 2018 by NYU Press and won the Emory Elliott book award. Her new book, Climate Anxiety and the Kid Question: Deciding Whether to Have Children in an Uncertain Future (2024), analyzes the relationship between climate emotions, social inequality, and reproductive anxiety in the U.S. She also has a podcast with the same name.
-Rebecca Weston, LSCW, JD is Co-Executive Director of CPA-NA and is a psychotherapist, photographer, and activist living in metro-New York. In her clinical practice, her work is informed by a recognition that our senses of self, connection, and our sense of capacity are powerfully influenced by both internal and systemic aspects of our lives. She has expertise in attachment and trauma. As a long time social activist with deep roots in clinical practice, Rebecca believes that emotion carries a story that is at once private and social; that change is at once individual and collective.

Webinar: Can New York Still Hit Its Goal of 70% Renewable Electricity by 2030?, Wednesday, April 30, 2025, 12pm - 1:30pm, hosted by Cornell ILR School
Register: https://tinyurl.com/36pdshst
In 2022, New York drew just 25% of its electricity from renewables, yet state law requires 70% by 2030. Where are we on track, where are we falling behind, and how do we turn megawatts into good union jobs?
Join Cornell Industrial and Labor Relations (ILR) School on Wednesday, April 30, from 12 - 1:30 p.m. ET, for a virtual briefing on the Climate Jobs Institute’s new report on New York’s progress, followed by a panel discussion with state and labor leaders.
Speakers and panelists
Senator Peter Harkham, New York State Senate District 40; Chairman, Committee on Environmental Conservation
Assemblymember Michaelle Solages, New York State Assembly District 22
Vincent Albanese, Executive Director, New York State Laborers’ Organizing Fund
Julie Tighe, President, New York League of Conservation Voters (NYLCV)
Iris Packman, Senior Research & Policy Development Associate, Climate Jobs Institute
Bethany Figueroa, Research Support Specialist, Climate Jobs Institute
Lynda Nguyen, Climate Jobs Associate, Climate Jobs Institute
Why the stakes go beyond megawatts
Energy reliability: Electrifying buildings and cars will increase electricity demand. Without faster, large-scale deployment and storage, we risk an over-stressed grid.
Economic opportunity: Meeting the 2030 standard could create 15,000 additional solar jobs alone, but only if projects come with strong labor standards and targeted pathways for frontline communities.
Public health and cost of delay: Every year of slippage locks in fossil-fuel emissions, higher utility costs, and escalating disaster-recovery bills.

Sometimes it just rains and rains. For many millennia the generally aquatic climate and low coastal position of New York City has been to our advantage, but with increasing intensity and duration of storms, living with water is becoming a fundamental part of what it means to be a New Yorker. In this cross-disciplinary, cross-sectoral presentation, the ecologist Eric Sanderson, artist Mary Miss, and city planner Amy Motzny will discuss their collaborations through the New York City Department of Environmental Protection’s Cloudburst Management program to reduce the worst effects of urban flooding in New York. Sanderson, will discuss how our landscape is pre-adapted to water and what lessons pertain; Miss will discuss how the artistic community can help us imagine new ways of living with water in the 21st century; and Motzny will discuss the DEP's efforts to reduce risk to life and property from sudden, drenching storms.
