Does climate change have its worst effects on already vulnerable populations? How can we protect these populations as society and our climate continue to change? Come hear a cross-section of perspectives on climate justice issues affecting urban and rural communities, Midwestern and international communities, acting through local and large-scale systems. This MLK 2022 week event encourages participants to think about how we can address these challenges before they get worse.
This event featured a faculty panel discussion led by Brady Hardiman, professor of Forestry and Natural Resources, with panelists Becca Nixon, postdoctoral researcher with Illinois Indiana Sea Grant, Ben Rachunok (recent Purdue PhD graduate, currently a postdoc at Stanford), and Savannah Schulze (PhD candidate, Anthropology at Purdue University). The panel was organized by Jeff Dukes, Professor of Forestry and Natural Resources & Biological Sciences, Director of Purdue Climate Change Research Center, and Belcher Chair for Environmental Sustainability.
