Our second annual hike at Peekskill State Park, we’ll kick off climate week with some mushroom foraging and good conversation about the coming School year and climate’s place in it. Afterwards, a stop over at the Brewery for our 21+ participants, non-alcoholic beers sold too! Proper shoes and mask required. Water, snacks, and weather-appropriate attire recommended. Please meet at the Peekskill Metro North train station.
Cooper Climate Week 2021 is a series of lectures and events that aim to engage our communities in assessing the role of the climate crisis in our day-to-day lives. This year, we'll focus on the themes of reconstruction and deconstruction as we imagine all of the work ahead of us. The Cooper Climate Coalition aims to promote curiosity, interdisciplinary dialogue, and sustained engagement with the climate crisis.
The Cooper Climate Coalition, an open body of students, faculty, and staff at The Cooper Union, facilitates conversations, events, and student projects within the institution that center the Climate Crisis and its intersections with races, classes, genders, sexualities, histories, economies, political structures and more.
Along with organizing Cooper Union’s Climate Week programs and events in the fall, the Climate Coalition takes responsibility for fostering interdisciplinarity throughout The Cooper Union in support of environmental action.
