In June, CCE coordinators and training staff wrapped up the Spring 2023 session for the Cornell Climate Stewards program. Over the course of twelve weeks, volunteers across New York State received comprehensive training on climate change science, while also learning about how to plan and implement solutions for NY communities, in preparation for spearheading climate change projects in their local communities. Volunteers engaged with climate change and related topics such as climate science, impacts, mitigation, adaptation, public communication, interacting with local and state government, creating and planning local projects, and climate justice.
The following is the steward certification presentation given Thursday evening for the joint training between CCE Clinton/Essex, Madison, Niagara, Orange, Otsego, Schoharie, Schuyler, and Seneca.
