Cornell Civic Ecology Lab Online Course: Climate Action with Family and Friends
February 13–March 12, 2023

ABOUT THE COURSE

Do you want to do something to avert the climate crisis, but question whether your individual actions are meaningful? How might we move from individual to collective or group actions? In the Climate Action with Family and Friends online course, you will choose an action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and apply the latest social sciences research to influence your family and friends to take the action alongside you. While having fun with family and friends, you will extend your impacts beyond what you can do alone! NOTE: This course is an updated version of our earlier Network Climate Action course. If you have taken that course, you will have an opportunity to update your knowledge and skills and try out a new network climate action! For those new to the course, “network climate action” refers to taking a climate action with a close social network–generally family members or friends.
