Climate Solutions Center

The Climate Solutions Center is a platform that facilitates collaborative research and community engagement to find effective real-world responses to environmental and climate challenges focused on higher education’s role and contribution to a just and livable future.

Guiding Principles

The Climate Solutions Center is the place for promoting and answering questions on how to conserve, preserve, and sustain our environment.

With the urgency created by the impacts of climate change and a fundamental commitment to environmental justice, we strive to be:

Transdisciplinary and innovative in building integrated opportunities for teaching, research, and community engagement centered around climate solutions, environment, and sustainability-related topics;

Policy-relevant, data-driven, and evidence-based by doing applied work that translates to decision makers in government, industry, and communities;

Rooted and focused on issues of equity and environmental justice in which we add and amplify voices in the conversation, including work directly with or within diverse communities, including Indigenous, Black, Latinx, LGBTQ+, and other communities;
