CSCR Community Track #1: Talking About Climate Using Tools of Media Literacy....Sustainable Tompkins
Climate Smart & Climate Ready Conference Community Track #1 on April 20, 2013 at Cinemapolis Theater in Ithaca, NY. Sox Sperry, Project Look Sharp. Talking About Climate Using the Tools of Media Literacy.
This Earth Day, We are launching an ambitious goal of achieving global climate and environmental literacy by Earth Day 2020. Education is the foundation for progress. We need to build a global citizenry, which is fluent in the concepts of climate change, and aware of its unprecedented threat to our planet. We need to empower everyone with knowledge to act in defense of environmental protection. To help you craft your Earth Day 2017 events, Earth Day Network has developed toolkit resources specialized to your community, accessible below.
Earth Day Network has created this toolkit so that you, the environmentally-minded citizen, can create tangible change by organizing and coordinating Earth Day events in your local Community.

Community Awareness is generally defined as knowledge created through interaction between community people and its environment, a setting bounded in space and time. It involves states of knowledge as well as dynamic process of perception and action. It is the knowledge that must be maintained and kept updated to complete some tasks in the environment. Community Awareness generation is considered as core element of successful disaster risk reduction.
Community awareness refers when the community is aware about each and everything that is happening around and if the is an issue which needs to be solved, the community members should have an idea of what problems are some of the community members facing around the community. Measures on how to solve the problems faced by the community must be discussed.
Community awareness is the ability to direct know and perceive, to fell, or consciousness about a potential problem or impact on a community people of an event

Preparing for Abrupt Climate Change: Building Civic Capacity and Overcoming P...Matthew Nisbet
Over the past year, I have had the great opportunity to work with faculty and students at the The University of Maine’s Climate Change Institute and their NSF-funded Integrative Graduate Education and Research Traineeship (IGERT) – the first of its kind to focus explicitly on adaptation to abrupt climate change. Here is a short description on the rationale for the program, a joint initiative between the Climate Change Institute and the School of Policy and International Affairs at the University of Maine.
The paradigm that climate change operates slowly and gradually shifted with the discovery of abrupt climate change (ACC), which refers to rapid state changes in the climate system that are either transient or persistent, and of variable magnitude. We now recognize that abrupt climate change is one of the greatest threats to the sustainability of human society and ecosystem services, yet economic and social systems are rarely designed for abrupt nonlinear environmental change. The Adaptation to Abrupt Climate Change (A2C2) IGERT is a doctoral training program for students in earth sciences, ecology, anthropology, archaeology, international affairs, and economics. A2C2 is designed to train the next generation of natural and social scientists to meet the critical societal challenge of human adaptation to abrupt climate change (ACC).
In the Spring of 2013, I taught a week-long workshop for students involved in the IGERT program and other faculty and professionals at the University of Maine. Participants were introduced to research and strategies for more effectively engaging the public and policymakers on sustainability-related issues. The workshop also covered different schools of thought, modes of practice, and areas of research relevant to navigating the intersections among science, policy, and communication. The goal was for participants to gain an integrated understanding of the institutions, organizations, and actors involved in public communication and policymaker engagement; and the different roles they can play as experts, professionals and educators.
In Fall 2013, I participated in a retreat for faculty, organizational partners and students involved in the A2C2 program. To generate discussion and small group idea generation, I presented a brief overview on communication challenges and strategies relevant to preparing for abrupt climate change. In my presentation, I focused particularly on sea level rise and other coastal impacts. I also created a web page and list of relevant readings and resources that I will continue to update. You can find the list at the link below.

1. Branding Southern California Wildfires An awareness campaign for the United States Geological Survey A Designmatters and Graphic Design Studio at Art Center College of Design Pasadena, California
2. Click on the icon below to insert one or more images showing the context... Where the project is starting from, what the situation or problem that triggered its development? Context: The USGS Multi-Hazards Demonstration Project improves resiliency to natural disasters by applying science to community decision-making and emergency response. Catastrophic wildfires are a regular reality in Southern California, public education and engagement is critical to minimize community vulnerability.
3. Project: the Wildfire Studio conducted extensive research with USGS scientists to create a multi-tiered visual approach to wildfire prevention. The campaign’s primary audience are communities living at wildlife/urban interfaces in Southern California, identified as the most vulnerable to wildfires—and also key actors in preventing them.
4. Design Role : Several distinct identities and marketing strategies emerged, each are multi-tiered approaches utilizing various traditional and non-traditional vehicles for messaging to maximize public education. Some incorporated real-time scientific data to best enhance emergency response on the community level. More information at designmattersatartcenter.org
