SUMMARY:Climate Fresk: Using Gamification to Understand Climate Change
DESCRIPTION:Climate Fresk is a gamified workshop that teaches participants how everything is connected in the climate crisis. The goal is to empower participants with an understanding and language to be able to speak to nuanced issues\, and empower them to build a foundation to move a community towards action. The material is based on the most comprehensive source of climate data\, leveraged by governments and businesses globally\, the United Nation’s IPCC report. \nThis three-part workshop is segmented into learning about climate science\, processing climate anxiety\, and ends with a collective brainstorm. It’s been played by more than 1 million participants globally\, in universities\, governments\, and large organizations\, and is chosen as the standard for education in different sectors – the French government has chosen it as their gold standard and is training 25k employees in the next three years. \nThis workshop is the first of a two-part training to become a facilitator yourself and this tool can be leveraged in a professional capacity within governments\, organizations\, or in your local community.

SUMMARY:Exploring the Disparity in Green Space Access
DESCRIPTION:Green Book Cleveland is a restorative history project of the Center for Public History + Digital Humanities at Cleveland State University and Cuyahoga Valley National Park. \nVictor H. Green’s Green Book guides\, published between 1936 and 1966 to help Black motorists find courteous service and avoid harassment or the embarrassment of rejection in their travels\, have drawn new interest in recent years in journalism\, scholarship\, and popular culture. \nGreen Book Cleveland maps and further documents Northeast Ohio Green Book sites\, as well as places that never appeared in any of its 23 national editions. The Green Book never captured the full range of entertainment\, leisure\, and recreation sites that African Americans enjoyed. Green Book Cleveland seeks to document Black economic life\, from restaurants\, taverns\, and nightclubs to beauty and barber shop and even the garages and service stations that facilitated travel within and beyond Black neighborhoods like Cedar-Central and “surrogate suburbs” like Glenville and Lee-Harvard. These are mostly stories of small business owners and the clienteles they served\, but they extend to stories of struggles simply to enjoy fresh air and cool water. \nRegister by clicking here. \nThanks to our sponsors: Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District\, The Living Waters Association\, The Sauerland Foundation\, The Cuyahoga Valley National Park\, The Cleveland State University Cleveland Memory Project\, The Union Miles Development Corp. and The Community Life Collaborative.
