Please take me off
by Little, Leanne 07 Dec '18

Getting these emails now I can not participate makes me extremely sad. I never wanted to be removed from this group, it happened without any consultation with me when my husband and partner, Jim Byrne, decided he no longer wanted to be married. This all causes me extreme sadness and stress. Please take my email off the list. Keep up the good work, Leanne

URGENT - AGU FALL MEETING Attending/Participating in the AGU Fall Meeting Climate Solutions Sessions
by Byrne, James 07 Dec '18

07 Dec '18

Dear colleagues, WE NEED YOUR PARTICIPATION IN THE CLIMATE SOLUTIONS CONFERENCES INTIATIVE AT THE AGU FALL MEETING! 😊 These are the plans for the AGU Climate Solutions Sessions and discussions. The draft meeting proposal is attached. Our goal at the AGU Fall Meeting is to identify a cohesive set of climate solutions theme proposals and associated theme leadership teams. Theme proposals should be specific to a solution theme covering all aspects of the solution, including policy, planning, technology, education, research needs, investment requirements, public and stakeholder perception, innovative opportunities, etc. At the Climate Solutions Meeting, session proposers would invite participants with expertise across the range of possible outcomes. Session outcomes would be vetted at several levels within the conference and refereed externally. We plan to fast track all solution theme reports in a special journal edition. See the Conference Schedule for further detail. At the AGU Fall meeting, we have an oral session Wednesday afternoon 13:40 - 15:40 https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm18/meetingapp.cgi/Session/61338 A poster session Thursday morning https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm18/meetingapp.cgi/Session/61332 A workshop Thursday afternoon: Building Multidisciplinary Climate Change Solutions Partnerships (Working Group). We have a meeting room in the Grand Hyatt in the Penn Quarter Room from 1PM-4PM, Thursday 12/13/2018. All welcome. RSVP to solvingclimate(a)gmail.com<mailto:solvingclimate@gmail.com> Action Item: We also wish to hold a Wednesday night dinner discussion at a local restaurant … any and all welcome. Please RSVP to solvingclimate(a)gmail.com<mailto:solvingclimate@gmail.com>if you would like to join Wednesday and we will check into the number of seats needed.

CALL FOR CLIMATE EDUCATORS SUBMISSIONS AND COLLABORATIONS AGU FALL MEETING 2018 AND CLIMATE SOLUTIONS CONFERENCE 2019 FALL MEETING ABSTRACT DEADLINE AUGUST 1, 2018 In spring 2019, AGU is hosting the first annual Climate Solutions Conference (CSC). We are seeking educators and educator teams, who are willing to be present at the conference to collaborate on creating open education resources about specific solutions to climate change challenges at the CSC. We invite abstracts for presentation and development at the 2018 AGU Fall Meeting in our Education Session<https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm18/prelim.cgi/Session/50796>. For this session, we are seeking input into how the proceedings and findings of the conference could be turned into open education resources (needs, requirements, opportunities) and how they could subsequently be disseminated globally (including translation). All conference attendees may submit an abstract to an Education Session in addition to a scientific session. See AGU First Authorship Policy<https://fallmeeting.agu.org/2018/files/2018/04/018_28824_FM18_First_Author_…>. Please contact the conveners for a copy of the CSC operation plan for an overview of scope and intend. Please refer to our GeoHealth session<https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm18/prelim.cgi/Session/48260> if you may wish to co-lead or participate in a theme. AGU Climate Solutions Conferences - Building Open Education Resources from Multidisciplinary Climate Change Solutions Partnerships Conveners: James Byrne (byrne(a)uleth.ca<mailto:byrne@uleth.ca>) and Roland Kroebel (roland.kroebel(a)agr.gc.ca<mailto:roland.kroebel@agr.gc.ca>) The world wants climate solutions. Beginning in spring 2019, the AGU Climate Solutions Conferences will build pathways and partnerships for communities to discover, define, investigate, and implement climate solutions. We must minimize global warming, maximize societal and environmental resilience and adaptive capacity for communities around the world. Climate solutions are human rights solutions – diversity is a central premise of the Climate Solutions Conference. The conveners seek education partnerships to create open source education materials based on themes developed at the AGU Climate Solutions Conferences beginning spring 2019. The target audience includes high schools, colleges and universities. Hence, we are seeking long term partnerships to develop and update education resources in concert with the annual AGU Climate Solutions Conference. We envision this initiative creating a climate change education solutions group within the AGU. The CSC Committee is hosting a parallel GeoHealth session<https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm18/prelim.cgi/Session/48260> at the 2018 AGU Fall Meeting. Presenting educators are strongly encouraged to attend the GeoHealth Session to gain an overview over the proposed themes and to potentially make first contact with individual theme leads. The Fall Meeting Education Session will provide presenting teams the opportunity to meet with the CSC Leadership Committee, and to interact with the broader AGU Community through the session and through a proposed CSC town hall. Again, please do not hesitate to discuss any ideas with the conveners.
