Join CCL Education & Engagement Director Brett Cease and CCL Michigan Liaisons Coordinator Lisa DelBuono, MD, for a training on Climate Interactive's En-ROADS climate policy simulator, built with MIT Sloan. This session will review the tool's background, details, and how to host your own simulation events.

Lisa demonstrates sample presentations exploring carbon pricing (e.g., Energy Innovation & Carbon Dividend Act) and other climate strategies. Examples for progressive (video) and conservative (video) audiences highlight impacts on energy, land use, and agriculture.

Access presentation slides (cclusa.org/enroads-update), the En-ROADS Simulator (en-roads.org), and further training (learn.climateinteractive.org). Share your experiences on CCL Community’s Forums (community.citizensclimate.org/forums).

Shannon Lisa, Program Director for the Edison Wetlands Association, investigates chemical contaminant dumping. Motivated by growing up in a contaminated state, she protects human health and the environment through "environmental detective work."

In Franklin, Indiana, Shannon uncovered a decades-old toxic cold case. After children fell ill, she analyzed over 40,000 hidden EPA documents, revealing a mismanaged industrial site and homes potentially invaded by poison gases like TCE. She coordinated residential air testing, finding toxins 18x over state thresholds, prompting a reopened EPA investigation.

Shannon continues to advocate for permanent cleanup in Franklin and national change against industrial pollution. broweryouthawards.org. Film by Storyline Media.

Forest gardens offer a sustainable agroforestry model, mimicking natural ecosystems by combining diverse edible plants like fruit trees, shrubs, and vegetables in a seemingly wild setting. UK pioneer Martin Crawford transformed a flat field into such a garden in 1994, now an educational resource. A short film by Thomas Regnault highlights Crawford's abundant and diverse forest garden as a potential answer for future food systems. Watch the film: A Forest Garden With 500 Edible Plants Could Lead to a Sustainable Future.

This film is featured on National Geographic's Short Film Showcase, which spotlights exceptional videos affirming science, exploration, and storytelling. National Geographic is a leading destination for science, exploration, and adventure, bringing viewers closer to impactful stories. Learn more about the filmmaker at thomasregnault.com.
