Extension Climate & Extreme Weather Programming: Successes, Challenges & Opportunities, a report published in 2020, is now available in a flipping book format.
This report - produced in response to an Extension Foundation RFP - contains a national inventory of Cooperative Extension programs and practices in climate and extreme weather. The report and included database provide insight into the successes, challenges, and opportunities for programming in this area and offer conclusions about the way forward. Programs included in the inventory align with Project Drawdown, and other frameworks and accepted practices. In addition to the program inventory, the project team interviewed Extension professionals to learn about the range of factors involved in this type of programming, including leadership styles, institutional challenges, and more.
The data was gathered and compiled by a multi-state team of faculty and student climate fellows representing several institutions, including Utah State University, the University of Florida, and Montana State University.
