Integrating Science into Climate and Environmental Policy
Get PDFClimate and environmental policies depend on sound science. Scientists have an opportunity, and even an obligation, to connect their work to societal challenges – and to communicate their science in ways that are accessible and useful to decision makers and the public. From local, to state, to national, to global scales, building bridges between scientists and information users can help to ensure that science addresses timely decision needs, in support of a more sustainable future.

The Emotional Life of the Climate Justice Movement
Get PDFWhat will it take to imagine, desire, and thrive in a climate-changed world? If we already know the technological, scientific, and economic tools to address the climate crisis, what are the emotional and cultural resources needed to put those tools into action? How can we live our best lives in the face of so much degradation and injustice? In this talk, Dr. Sarah Jaquette Ray will explore these questions drawing on her recent book, A Field Guide to Climate Anxiety: How to Keep Your Cool on a Warming Planet. The book brings together the environmental humanities, social movement theory, environmental justice, climate psychology, mindfulness, and affect theory to outline strategies for coping with anxiety, grief, and despair in service of climate justice. Ray will talk about how a new generation of young activists is changing the climate movement and why it’s so important for them and for the planet that we know how to cultivate intellectual and existential skillfulness in our advocacy, no matter what type of work we do.

The Social Construction of Leadership Through Parenting
Get PDFLeadership is a thought-provoking word that encompasses practically everything in the realm of life, love, and the pursuit of delight. Before beginning a doctorate in leadership studies at Gonzaga University, I regarded leadership as a skill that specific people in management roles practiced. I felt as if one had to be an executive in a sizeable professional establishment to understand the practice of governance and how one could undertake the nuances of practicing the leadership vocation. One can discover leadership in personal, family, professional, organizational, communal, social, and global life
