Coping with Climate Change

In this online workshop, students learn how to prepare a climate change mitigation and adaptation plan for a given human organization or human community somewhere in the United States. They do so in part with the help of EN-ROADS, a computer-based interactive climate change simulation. In the process, students also explore the causes and consequences of global climate change worldwide, as well as viable options for mitigating or adapting to its effects. They do so in part using perspectives informed by systems thinking.
