Distributed by the three core disciplines in LSA (humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences), the Year of Sustainability Team has prepared a list of thought-provoking conversation starters. To put these into a presentation see the slide example below and download our template slides.

Prepared by LSA faculty, this module provides an overview of the most up-to-date science and solutions. The content links to the intersectional topic areas including biodiversity and environmental justice.

Just starting to learn about the climate or want a refresh? We’ve got you covered with the foundational knowledge on climate change that you need to talk, think, and take action on climate.

Developed by campus sustainability staff, this module gives an overview of the University’s approach to climate action and sustainability, including the Carbon Neutrality Commitment and progress and efforts on sustainability goals (information is from the Planet Blue Ambassador Training). It includes a discussion of solutions and opportunities for LSA and personal behavior changes.

Using the 2023 Center for Sustainable Systems Factsheet, sustainability staff have assembled conversation prompts relating to food, energy, biodiversity, waste, water, transportation, and the environment. To put these into a presentation see our template slides.
