On April 20th, 2023, Environmental Studies majors hosted a workshop on consumption and climate change. "Fighting Against Climate Change Today" highlighted how the choices we make in our everyday lives can change our carbon footprints.
Over the course of three sessions, attendees tested their knowledge of the "embedded carbon" in our food, sampled climate-friendly treats by a local coffee shop, and learned about the climate consequences of our personal transportation choices.
The F.A.C.C.T. workshop was organized by the Environmental Studies Learning Community class, which is part of the core curriculum for the Environmental Studies major.
