#ICYMI, our latest ep. of Succinct Science talks with sociologist Dr. Lori Peek about @CUBoulder's @HazCenter and why it's critical to integrate disciplines like #sociology, with fields like engineering, to reduce the harm that results from #disasters.🎙️

[SESYNC @sesync]

There is a difference btw. a natural hazard & a natural disaster. Here👇 @HazCenter Dr. Lori Peek explains why it's critical to integrate disciplines such as #Sociology with fields such as #engineering to reduce harm and suffering from #disasters.

How do we promote pro-environmental behavior? This lesson, based on new Linda Steg @univgroningen research, teaches #Students to consider how individual & collective values influence behavior, decisions. #environmentalscience #climatechange #psychology

The provision is accordingly unconstitutional, the court said.

The win, experts say, could energize the environmental movement and reshape climate litigation across the country, ushering in a wave of cases aimed at advancing action on climate change. https://t.co/gm8OThMn4Q

Congratulations to Kelsea Best, whose research @SESYNC focused on climate gentrification's influence on coastal communities to help decision-makers adopt more just and equitable policies! 👇https://t.co/Mm64cFbYEA

[KnowltonOSU @KnowltonOSU]

Best’s research focuses on understanding how climate change interacts with human societies and infrastructure, how people may adapt to climate change effects, and how climate adaptation measures can be designed and implemented in a just and equitable way.
