University launches semester-long ‘climate emergency’ campaign to protect ‘Mother Earth’Western Michigan University is hosting a semester-long “emergency” climate change campaign to encourage students to take action on the “crisis.” It includes an event focused on “climate action” in connection to “Mother Earth.”Environmental Professor Steve Bertman told The College Fix via email the WMU Climate Change Working Group created the months-long campaign “thinking that a single event is easy to miss or even to ignore.” The group includes faculty, students, staff and community members.The goal is “to educate people about the threat the climate crisis poses and to build the movement toward urgent and rapid action to head off the worst consequences,” Bertman told The Fix last week.Through “Climate Emergency: Spring into Action 2024,” the university wants to “inspire” students to become more involved in the issue, according to a university news release. It cited a 2021 Pew Research survey that found 76 percent of young Americans consider climate change a big concern, and more than a third say it is their top concern.“Students will have opportunities to write to legislators, practice techniques to ease climate anxiety, build plant-based snack boxes and learn about sustainable farming at various events planned throughout the semester,” according to the news release.A seminar scheduled for April 10, “Breathe the Change: Using Mindfulness to Ease Climate Anxiety,” will explore “the impact of climate anxiety, its racial implications, and transformative practices to promote personal and planetary health,” according to the event listing.The WMU Climate Change Working Group also has a page on its website that lists resources to help people struggling with climate anxiety.Other events include the workshop “‘Water is Life:’ Indigenous Approaches to Climate Action in Relationship to Mother Earth,” which will focus on “traditional ecological knowledge, culture, relationships, and spirituality inform indigenous responses to the climate crisis.” The workshop will take place after a traditional Native American water ceremony at Goldsworth Valley Pond, according to the event listing.
