Do you grapple with your own emotions related to climate change or in how to support your graduate students? emotions as they research this topic? Our team is seeking researchers and grad students from across the US to complete a 15-20 min survey that will gather information about their experiences, barriers, and needs related to their own climate mental health and in supporting students? climate mental health. To participate, faculty researchers must currently work or plan to work with graduate students doing research related to climate change. Both faculty and graduate students must be doing research related to climate change. If you are a faculty researcher or graduate student who would like to participate, please fill out this survey: here by August 20. You will be invited to enter a drawing for six $50 gift cards. We also ask for you to share this opportunity with other researchers or grad students you may know.

Message-ID: Hello PCC Grads, Happy end (ish) of summer quarter! Missing community and want an excuse to come to campus and see your colleagues? You're invited to the summer edition (part two) of our Program on Climate Change (PCC) Third Thursdays happy hour! This event will take place in the Biology Greenhouse (and surrounding outdoor space if the weather is nice) on Thursday, August 21st from 5 pm to 7 pm. To give us a sense of how many people to expect, if you plan on coming, please RSVP here by Sunday, August 17th. What is Third Thursdays? The PCC Graduate Steering Committee (P-GraSC) is hosting a happy hour with food and drink provided every Third Thursday. We believe building community among scientists and academics is more important now than ever, and we are doing this in an effort to foster more connections across the climate space here at UW. We aim to create these connections by giving folks from different disciplines a place to come together to chat, eat pizza, and look at cool plants. Who can attend Third Thursdays? All UW graduate students, undergraduate students, postdocs, faculty and staff who work on climate or climate-change related issues, regardless of college or affiliation, are welcome and encouraged to attend. Feel free to forward to a friend who fits that description and might enjoy this event! If you would like to keep up to date with PCC news, you can sign up for the email listserv here. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about the event, and hope to see you there :) Best, Stella Heflin 2024-25 PCC Steering Committee -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Cheers, Miriam ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Maria Schell Hassid Date: Fri, Aug 15, 2025 at 11:39?AM Greetings from the Brower Center. As a member of our community, I am asking for your help getting the word out about a pretty amazing grant opportunity called the *Emerging Climate Champions Award*, sponsored by the Enlight Foundation that just came on my radar. [image: Emerging Climate Champions Award] This open call ($25M pot, at least $1M multi-year grants) is targeted at youth-led climate action groups. *The deadline is fast approaching (register by August 29, full application by September 22), *and I had no idea about it; so far the organizations I have reached out to who might qualify were similarly unaware. To qualify, organizations must be youth led (ages 15-30), an actual 501c3, and in operation for two years. I think they are having trouble finding applicants that fit this criteria because they extended the deadline. These kind of open calls are pretty rare and so I want to make sure we cast a net far and wide. Can you spread the word to anyone you think would be interested? You can find out more about the opportunity at this link https://climate.leverforchange.org/submit Thank you for being a part of this community!

Take a look at the current possibilities through AGU's Thriving Earth Exchange (TEX). Projects are described, and expertise needed is described for each project. The TEX program: https://thrivingearthexchange.org/scientist-opportunities/ Current projects looking for expertise: https://thrivingearthexchange.org/scientists-wanted/#currentopportunities *A local project: *I've been working with some members of the Lake Forest Park community to develop a resilience and mitigation resource to implement aspects of the cities climate action plan. One of our project leaders, Dana Campbell, was recently highlighted in UW Bothell news talking about phase one of the project--building a physical space for the community to gather. Phase two is building the web based resource. We are looking to bring together two or three people to help us develop a GIS map of data and resources in the city. Read the TEX description here . I am happy to answer any questions-we are hoping to find local expertise to work on this-you can also reach out to our community science fellow (Megan Hubbard) or fill out the interest form . There aren't any other projects in Washington State right now, but there are many that you could do remotely. Please share this email with others who might want to participate in AGU's Thriving Earth Exchange programming.
