The CWRU Climate Action Network will host the third annual Climate Action Week Oct. 2–7 with events held across the Case Western Reserve University campus and in the Greater Cleveland area.
According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change 2022 report: “Human society causes climate change. Climate change, through hazards, exposure and vulnerability generates impacts and risks that can surpass limits to adaptation and result in losses and damages. Human society can adapt to, maladapt and mitigate climate change, ecosystems can adapt and mitigate within limits. Ecosystems and their biodiversity provision livelihoods and ecosystem services. Human society impacts ecosystems and can restore and conserve them.”
