Working on the front lines of the growing climate crisis is emotionally and spiritually demanding. We recently spoke with AGCI Affiliate Susanne Moser, lead organizer and facilitator of the Adaptive Mind workshop, to understand the skills and capacities needed to navigate the turbulent, traumatic, and transformative challenges of climate change with resilience.

Emerging research is beginning to shed light on actions that consumers and producers alike can take to reduce food system impacts on the climate. Emissions are generated at every stage of the food system, from the production on farm to the food you scrape off your plate.

How quickly we reduce harmful greenhouse gas emissions critically depends on how fast we learn in the process. New research uses learning curves to explain staggering declines in costs of key climate technologies like solar photovoltaics and batteries, grounding hopes that we can get where we need to go—as long as we don’t delay getting started.

Over three years, I visited over 70 coastal communities to ask people about their experience with climate change. My interview partners reshaped my understanding of climate resilience.

New studies demonstrate how incorporating social systems into climate models is important for creating realistic climate forecasts and making informed policy decisions.

Renewable energy communities (RECs) have the potential to empower communities and benefit energy-vulnerable and energy-poor households. Recent research and review articles look at how this plays out in practice.
