The ICLR will train the next generation of climate leaders and make Cal Poly a recognized climate leader in higher ed.
关于我们
Climate change is the biggest problem humanity has ever faced, and it will be the defining challenge for the next generation. To meet this challenge, ICLR is building the Institute for Climate Leadership and Resilience, an organization that will train the next generation of climate leaders for these emergent careers, increase regional resilience on the Central Coast, and make Cal Poly a recognized climate leader in higher education. ICLR exists to facilitate collaboration among donors, industry partners, different campus departments, and our global community to create a future workforce that can produce climate solutions. The foundational skills to lead the necessary work of developing climate resilience are teachable, and our students are uniquely qualified with the ability and passion to lead the way. Resilience is built through human adaptation to climate change and we provide interdisciplinary, hands-on, Learn by Doing educational experiences focused specifically on responding to climate change. Cal Poly’s robust portfolio of high-impact research centers and firmly established brand of top-tier polytechnic education uniquely position it to provide leadership in developing applied climate solutions and to train the climate professionals of tomorrow. Cal Poly has many highly-regarded faculty experts working on climate policy and socio-economic impacts, sustainable technologies, climate-smart agriculture and alternative energy, locally and around the world. Cal Poly offers an ideal location due to (i) agricultural, fishery and ecological diversity within many microclimates, (ii) abundant open space, (iii) a diverse socio-economic demographic, (iv) forward-thinking local government, (v) an environmentally-engaged populace, and (vi) proximity to major metropolitan areas in spite of an essentially rural character.

Why are denial about climate change and angry resistance to needed climate actions ramping up? What can we do to accelerate progress toward a clean energy future? I addressed these questions in my 20-minute presentation at the Climate Solutions Now conference.

Today is Day 3 of #ClimateSolutionsNow! Register today to access the next 3 days and 50 sessions of content, and to access recordings of all talks from February 3-7. Please join us tomorrow, Thursday 2/6, at 2:10 pm PT for a talk with Kai Burrus, Aritree Samanta, and Autumn Thoyre (Co-Directors of Climate HQ at San Francisco State): "Climate Leadership in Action: Transforming California's Future through CSU's Climate Change Initiative". Abstract: Join us for an engaging and collaborative exploration of the California State University's climate change leadership program. This interactive workshop will challenge participants to envision and actively shape the future of climate action across California's largest public university system. Through dynamic discussions and collaborative activities, we'll unpack our CSU - Climate Change proposal, highlighting its innovative approach to cultivating a diverse, interdisciplinary climate change workforce. Participants will dive into the critical mission of preparing 650,000 graduates to become climate change leaders, exploring how our campuses are already making meaningful impacts and envisioning the transformative potential of the proposed initiatives. We'll examine key strategies including climate change curriculum development, research grants, student fellowships, and cross-campus collaborations that aim to create a more equitable and comprehensive approach to addressing climate challenges. This workshop is designed for students, faculty, and staff who are passionate about climate action and eager to contribute to systemic change. Come prepared to share your campus experiences, dream big about potential solutions, and provide critical feedback that will help shape the future of climate leadership in the CSU system.

It's not too late to sign up for #ClimateSolutionsNow! We're just starting day 2 of the 5-day, all-virtual conference. Register today to access the next 3.5 days and 65 sessions of content, and to access recordings of all talks. As an example of a talk you can still attend, tomorrow, Loretta M. Lynch (Former President of the California Public Utilities Commission) will be joining us at 11:10 am PT for a talk on: "The Pathway to Perdition: How the California Independent System Operator's Pathways Plan will prevent California from reaching its climate and GHG emissions reductions goals". Abstract: The CAISO and its interested "stakeholders" have planned for years to escape California's control by giving away the CAISO's power to run its current CA-only electricity market to a regional, non-California new entity.?Now a bill is set to be introduced in the CA Legislature to give away CA's control to a non-CA western entity that will cede California's power to set the rules for how CAISO operates California's electricity market and its transmission grid to an entity entirely outside California's laws or control. This presentation shows how giving away California's power over its electricity markets and expanding the current California-only geographical footprint will likely destroy California's Renewable energy Portfolio Standards and will allow the Trump FERC and DOE to require that CA not only accept, but also subsidize coal-fired electricity into California. California policymakers should resist any proposal to give away its power to the Trump FERC and instead should prioritize protecting California's consumers, environment and laws.
