From Claire Monk (’24)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\n

I have been invited to the OSU Byrd Polar Climate and Research Center Speaker Series <\/a>on April 2nd to engage undergraduate students in conversations about climate focused careers.\u00a0 I am also attending a NE Ohio Youth Climate Summit in Cleveland on April 11th. Stay tuned for more!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

From Bess Hjartarson (’24)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

My colleague Dusty Rixford and I were co-presenters at the\u00a0Montana Environmental Education Association<\/a>\u00a0annual conference in Helena, MT a few weeks ago.\u00a0 Dusty is the Education Manager at\u00a0American Prairie<\/a>, out of Lewistown MT.\u00a0 Our workshop, Prairie Roots, focused on prairie ecology and conservation through connecting students to our prairie ecosystem.\u00a0 She shared a native plant lesson, and I shared what I have been doing with my STEM Trunks, particularly the Bison Ecology Trunk and the Native Plant Garden Trunk.\u00a0 Both have been in use this spring, and I was particularly excited to share the success we have had with my high school students leading the trunk activities with the younger elementary students.\u00a0 Next fall we are hoping to travel to Lewistown and to collaborate with Fergus HS students to do some trunk demos there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are planning on submitting a proposal to present at our\u00a0MFPE<\/a>\u00a0conference this fall, emphasizing a collaboration between my HS students, and the students at Fergus HS, and how they are “Growing Their Own Roots” and connecting to their communities by sharing their knowledge of local ecology with younger students in both of our communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From Sean Tracy (’24):<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The DC Environmental Film Fest is up and running. I thought I would share a link as a resource for those looking for newer, shorter, documentaries: https:\/\/dceff.org\/watchnow<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hot off the Presses! Global Warming’s Six Americas 2024<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The latest update <\/a>on this seminal, long-running study by the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication.\u00a0 Their whole website<\/a> is a great resource for climate communicators!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
