  • Focus on Change: a Closer Look at Climate Change Impacts in the Northeast
    Focus on Change: A Closer Look at Climate Change Impacts in the Northeast A synthesis of the June 27, 2012 conference held at Pace’s Schimmel Theater in downtown Manhattan This synthesis has been drafted by the staff of the Pace Energy and Climate Center and is not a word-for-word transcript of the event. Any errors or omissions are the responsibility of Pace and the text should not be used for quotations or direct attribution to speakers without the speaker's permission. What’s at Stake? Bill McKibben & 350.org The sprawling nature of the environmental movement is a bright light to emphasize before focusing on the grimmer stuff. People of all kinds are trying to do something about climate change, the greatest problem that we have ever faced. CNN has called the climate movement the “most widespread political activity in the history of the planet.” 350.org has organized 20,000 rallies in 192 countries, every nation save North Korea. Still, the fight against climate change is being lost. The level of carbon in the atmosphere is increasing, and worse, the temperature is increasing. Just this spring, researchers in the Arctic recorded CO2 concentrations of more than 400 parts per million (ppm), which is well above the 350 ppm that scientists have determined is the highest safe CO2 concentration and from which 350.org takes its name. Within 18 months, the rest of the world will catch up to the Arctic CO2 concentration, which is the highest level recorded in 800,000 years. From these sobering statistics we take renewed determination.

Department of Marketing and Medical Technology, “Carol Davila” University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Bucharest, Romania 2. Department of Nephrology, “Carol Davila” Clinical Nephrology Hospital, Bucharest, Romania * Corresponding Author: Cristina - Mihaela Chichirez, PhD Assist Department of Marketing and Medical Technology, Carol Davila University of Medicine and Pharmacy, 8, Eroilor Sanitari Boulevard, 050474, Bucharest, Romania Phone: +40742814902 E-mail: [email protected] Received: August 20th, 2020 – Accepted: November 7th, 2020 Abstract The impact of climate change on humanity and nature is increasingly evident. The atmosphere and oceans have warmed, leading to rising sea levels, a sharp drop in Arctic sea ice, floods, heatwaves, and fires. Calls to action are getting stronger. Concerns about climate change have become a full social movement, stimulating climate activism from the bottom up to the world, especially among young people. Campaigns are initiated by governments and international organizations, scientists and scientific institutions, organiza- tions, groups, and people in civil society, public intellectuals and political, religious leaders, people of culture and entertainment. These campaigns generally aim to inform, raise awareness and shape public understanding about the science, problems, and policy of cli- mate change, with the hope that, first of all, people will change their attitudes and behavior, and secondly, will mobilize to put pressure on policymakers for effective climate policies. Keywords: Civil society, climate activism, climate change, demonstrations, social campaigns.

  • Climate Justice Club Presents a Factbook on the Intersection of Social Justice and Environmental and Climate Justice
    The College of Saint Benedict and Saint John’s University’s Climate Justice Club presents a Factbook on the intersection of social justice and environmental and climate justice. During the summer of 2020, we released the Factbook Unlearning Racist Behaviors in the Climate Activist World, which addresses the intersection of climate justice and environmental racism. The purpose of this factbook is to encourage our audience to utilize the sources in an effort to educate themselves about the disproportionate impact polluting industries have on communities of color. Social Justice in the Environmental Movement: A Factbook to Explore and Learn About the Intersection of Social Justice & Environmental and Climate Justice expands on our past factbook by not only considering how our club’s mission overlaps with racial justice, but with social justice as a whole. Please visit NAACP’s website to learn more about environmental and climate justice. Climate Justice Club encourages you to read through these resources to understand/learn why there is no climate justice without social justice. Please view the Table of Contents to explore the various media presented throughout the Factbook; there are resources for everyone! We believe it is pertinent that we continue educating ourselves and turn this learning into collective action. Share with us the information that stuck out most to you, and promote it on social media! We would like to credit the organization/platform Intersectional Environmentalist for providing some of the resources found throughout the Factbook.

  • Climate Futures: Youth Perspectives
    Conference briefing Climate Futures: Youth Perspectives February 2021 William Finnegan #clClimateFutures cumberlandlodge.ac.uk @CumberlandLodge Foreword This briefing document has been prepared to guide and inform discussions at Climate Futures: Youth Perspectives, the virtual conference we are convening from 9 to 18 March 2021. It provides an independent review of current research and thinking, and information about action being taken to address the risks associated with our rapidly changing climate. In March, we are convening young people from schools, colleges and universities across the UK, together with policymakers, charity representatives, activists, community practitioners and academics, for a fortnight of intergenerational dialogue on some of the biggest challenges facing the planet today. We are providing a platform for young people to express their views, visions and expectations for climate futures, ahead of the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP26) in Glasgow, this November. Ideas and perspectives from the Cumberland Lodge conference will be consolidated into a summary report, to be presented to the Youth4Climate: Driving Ambition meeting (Pre-COP26) in Milan this September. We are grateful to our freelance Research Associate, Bill Finnegan, for preparing this resource for us. Bill will be taking part in our virtual conference and writing our final report. The draft report will be reviewed and refined at a smaller consultation involving conference participants and further academics and specialists in the field of climate change, before being published this summer. I hope that you find this briefing useful, both for the conference discussions and your wider work and study. I look forward to seeing you at the conference.

  • How Does Greta Thunberg Use the Discourse of Youth in Her Movement For
    UNIVERSITY OF CALGARY The Greta Effect: How does Greta Thunberg use the discourse of youth in her movement for climate justice? By Leann E. Leung Supervisors: Dr. Mél Hogan & Dr. Tamara Shepherd A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF ARTS IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF “BA HONOURS COMMUNICATION AND MEDIA STUDIES” DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNICATION, MEDIA AND FILM CALGARY, ALBERTA APRIL, 2020 © Leann E. Leung 2020 2 Abstract In Winter 2018, Greta Thunberg, a 15-year-old Swedish climate activist stopped going to school and started to protest outside of the Swedish Parliament with a sign that said, “Skolstrejk för Klimatet”, which stands for “Schoolstrike for Climate”. Fast forward to September 2019, with the help of social media, she led four million people around the world for the “Fridays4Future” global climate strike, and was named Time Magazine’s “Person of the Year” for 2019. Using the critical discourse analysis framework purposed by Fairclough and Janks, and drawing on Foucault’s theorization on discourse, power and resistance, this thesis analyzes three of Greta Thunberg’s speeches to understand the way she draws on different linguistic functions to form discursive frames about the identity and ideology of youth. Evidence from the analysis concludes that while Thunberg is politically resistant in her attempts to subvert the traditional social and familial hierarchies of power, she uses both dominant and counter discourses about youth to articulate her political position. The conclusion also suggests that the oppositional position of young people in the climate movement represents a counter-power, that mutually constitutes a power struggle along with the dominant power.

  • Fossil Fuel Divestment in US Higher Education: Student-Led Organising
    Local Environment, 2015 http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/13549839.2015.1009825 Fossil fuel divestment in US higher education: student-led organising for climate justice ∗ Jessica Grady-Bensona and Brinda Sarathyb aYoung Alumni Organizer, Responsible Endowments Coalition, Brooklyn, NY, USA; bAssociate Professor of Environmental Analysis, Pitzer College, Claremont, CA, USA (Received 21 September 2014; accepted 14 January 2015) Based on over one year of participant observation within the student-led fossil fuel divestment (FFD) movement, this article contextualises the origins, successes, challenges, and inner workings of the FFD movement in US higher education. We analyse several college divestment campaigns to illuminate key factors that have contributed to wins and rejections, and explore why students continue to organise for FFD. It is our contention that such widespread mobilisation for FFD signals a sea change, from individualised sustainability efforts to youth-led collective political action, and recognition of climate change as a social justice issue. In addition to participant observation, we gathered data from 23 survey responses of organisers involved in divestment campaigns within higher education, and 40 interviews with individuals including student and professional organisers within the FFD movement, institutional decision-makers at campuses with FFD campaigns, and other experts in the area. Our analysis also reveals that relatively smaller endowments and, more importantly, institutional values of environmental sustainability and social justice played key roles in colleges’ decision to divest. Our examination of divestment “losses” illuminates common arguments administrators deploy in their rejection statements, including the perceived costs of divestment, the need to maintain fiduciary responsibility, and scepticism that divestment will have any impact on the fossil fuel industry.
