Course Description
Addressing climate change and its consequences demands impactful exchanges between science and society. Unfortunately, decades of political strife surrounding climate change and other experiences like the COVID-19 pandemic show that efforts to have science inform decision making don’t always go well. This course covers the promise of putting climate science in engagement with people’s applied concerns, challenges that arise from these engagements and insights from experiences about how these engagements can serve both society and science most effectively. We will cover foundational and emerging literature while class discussions will help connect concepts with student’s current work and future aspirations
