SUMMARY:Join Us for for a Webinar to Demonstrate the New Cool Congregations Calculator
DESCRIPTION:We have all seen a glimpse of cleaner air due to the constraints on human activity required by the COVID-19 pandemic. But a more lasting way to clear the air and protect our climate is to measure and reduce our carbon footprints. While you’re inside flattening the curve\, what better time to gather up your data and measure your carbon footprint? \nInterfaith Power and Light Executive Director Susan Stephenson will introduce the creators of the new calculators – Daniel Kammen and Chris Jones from the Cool Climate Network at the University of California\, who will give us a walk through of the features of the new calculators. \nJoin us for a webinar to demonstrate the NEW Cool Congregations calculator for your congregational facilities — and for your home too. \nRegister here for the webinar on April 30th!

SUMMARY:Earth Partnership: Indigenous Arts and Sciences: Connecting STEM to Indigenous Science
DESCRIPTION:Presenters: Michelle Cloud\, Cheryl Bauer-Armstrong\nWednesday\, April 29th\, 2020\, 7:30–8:30 p.m. EST \nThe spring walleye harvest is the time when the frogs begin to sing\, the snow turns to water\, and the maple sap is ready to tap. Tribal elders speak of the rich knowledge generations of Indigenous people have acquired by close observation and learning from local plants and animals. Understanding and respectfully acknowledging the interrelationships of phenomena and events in the natural world in a reciprocal and respectful way; honoring those relationships is the basis of traditional ecological knowledge. Contemporary First Nations youths\, and all young people\, could benefit from understanding the natural world and their relationship with it. A deeply collaborative approach between tribal\, university\, and K–12 partners has the potential to invigorate Indigenous youths in science endeavors\, make STEM more relevant to them (and their peers)\, as well as foster positive school cultures. \nEarth Partnership at the University of Wisconsin-Madison convened the expertise of elders and community members from Ho-Chunk\, Bad River\, Lac du Flambeau\, Lac Courte Oreilles\, and Red Cliff Nations with university social\, physical\, and life scientists to develop a culturally relevant environmental education program to improve experiences in science learning. \nThe resulting Indigenous Arts and Sciences (IAS) is an approach to environmental science education that engages Indigenous wisdom and scientific processes rooted in respect and reciprocity. While these are distinct from the more linear and chronological traditions of Western science\, there are intersections at which Western sciences and Traditional ecological knowledge can meet and interact with one another to their mutual benefit. \nThis webinar is a story about Earth Partnership’s Indigenous Arts and Sciences—how it began\, how our collaboration works\, and what we have learned (and are still learning) along the way. \nPresenters: \nMichelle Cloud is an enrolled member of the Ho-Chunk Nation and is Division Manager for Ho-Chunk Culture & Community Education\, managing the Nation’s Indigenous Arts & Sciences initiative. Michelle has experience working with Indigenous children and families as the former Title VI Parent Advisory Committee chair\, Johnson O’Malley chair\, and she is a national facilitator for Seeking Educational Equity & Diversity (SEED). She has a BS from Upper Iowa University in Criminal Justice and is currently pursuing an MS from University of Minnesota Duluth in Tribal Administration and Governance. \nCheryl Bauer-Armstrong is the Director of Earth Partnership Director at UW-Madison. Cheryl’s journey involving schools and communities in restoration education began at the UW-Madison Arboretum in 1994. Since becoming director of Earth Partnership in 2006\, she has led the effort in initiatives to address environmental justice\, water stewardship\, nature connectedness\, equitable education\, culturally-relevant pedagogy\, and community-based conservation in 22 states and in Puerto Rico. Initiatives include RESTORE\, Indigenous Arts and Sciences and Latino Earth Partnership. She teaches courses in the Department of Planning and Landscape Architecture. Cheryl has an MS in Landscape Planning and Ecology from Harvard University and a BS focused on ecological restoration from UW-Madison.

SUMMARY:Shared Responsibility\, Global Solidarity; A Virtual Dialogue on SDG17 and Public Private Partnerships: COVID-19 Response and Recovery in the Framework of the 2030 Agenda
DESCRIPTION:Join our webinar that aims to provide ideas about how partnerships can be catalyzed and scaled up in the COVID-19 era to advance the 2030 agenda. \nThe unfolding pandemic crisis has challenged national governments\, the international community and the business community in fundamental ways. All attention is now turned to solidarity in meeting urgent health and economic needs of people. Launching a global COVID-19 response is now an imperative and overarching focus for the United Nations\, as it is for global business. \nEffective pandemic response and recovery alongside the Decade of Delivery and Action\, relies on making “business as usual” obsolete for both the private sector and the international community. Inclusive multilateralism is needed now more than ever\, including through animating shared value partnerships across governments\, inter-governmental bodies\, business and other stakeholders. \nOrganized by UN DESA\, IOE\, USCIB’s All In 2020 Campaign and the Business Partners for Sustainable Development (BPSD)\, this virtual dialogue will provide ideas about how such partnerships can be catalyzed and scaled up to advance the 2030 Agenda and inform the future work of the HLPF. \nApril 29th\, 9:00 AM-10:30 AM \nRegister here

SUMMARY:Earth Day 2020
DESCRIPTION:The coronavirus pandemic has upended our lives. Just a week or so ago\, individuals in countries around the world were going to bars\, seeing movies with friends and\, really\, just going about business as usual. Now\, all that has changed. \nAmid the COVID-19 outbreak\, many health experts and government officials are suggesting\, and sometimes mandating\, that we practice social distancing to flatten the curve of the outbreak — preventing a surge of infected patients that overwhelm our hospitals. In other words\, that means we stay at home and limit nearly all in-person social interactions. \nBut as we exercise our individual and collective responsibility to reduce viral transmissions to preserve human health\, we can still exercise our responsibility to act for environmental health. We can use this solitary time to reassess our current habits and develop new ones that are better for the planet. Below are 11 ways to take action for the planet while social distancing — we hope they’ll stick\, even after our global health crisis subsides. \nCheck out 11 actions you can take here.
