Living and Working Through Climate Change: Emotional Resilience December 11th 9:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. EST | In-person and Virtual 


Climate adaptation is often discussed through the lenses of projection data, infrastructure planning, policies, and financial risk management. But behind every plan or policy decision are people who must live with the changes already happening around them, as well as the people whose work is focused on preparing communities for what comes next.


As climate impacts become more frequent and harder to ignore, they can also bring anxiety, grief, trauma, uncertainty, and exhaustion. These experiences are felt by people living through floods, extreme heat, displacement, and environmental loss, but also by the practitioners, planners, advocates, researchers, teachers, and community leaders who work on these issues every day.


What does it mean to live and work through climate change? How can we give proper recognition to the individual and collective climate grief and anxiety being experienced by so many people, especially our younger generations? How do we continue to urgently address the climate crisis while supporting practitioners increasingly facing exhaustion and burnout? And what can psychology, community practice, storytelling, and the arts teach us about building connection, hope, and the ability to act?


Midwest Climate Summit | March 31 – April 2, 2027 | Lincoln, NE

Events - Virtual

2026 Small Business Anti-Displacement Network Summit on Preventing Climate Displacement | November 12 - 13 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET | Virtual


Climate displacement is increasingly affecting vulnerable communities and small businesses across the U.S. and globally. Climate disasters, the long-term effects of climate change, and climate adaptation or mitigation strategies can also kickstart or compound gentrification. BIPOC- and immigrant-owned small businesses in low-wealth neighborhoods are particularly vulnerable to climate disasters and displacement.


Small businesses have struggled to recover in the wake of recent fires, floods, and other disasters, due in part to barriers to accessing aid, insufficient insurance, and inadequate resilience preparations. While many cities and communities are investing in climate resilience and disaster planning, the needs of small businesses are often peripheral to—or missing entirely—from these plans.


 Co-hosted by the Gentrification & Urban Displacement Lab at the Boston University Initiative on Cities




Healthy Trees, Strong Communities: A Path Forward for Virginia | Tuesday, November 17th 12:00PM - 1:00PM EST | Virtual

The discussion will highlight key challenges—including development pressures and heat impacts—as well as emerging strategies and tools to support effective tree conservation, expansion, and long-term community resilience.


Featured Speakers:


Dr. Laura Costadone—Research Assistant Professor, Old Dominion University

Andrew Larkin—Assistant Director for Engagement, Institute for Coastal Adaptation and Resilience (ICAR).

Ann Jurczyk—Virginia Urban Restoration Manager, Chesapeake Bay Foundation

This event is part of Resilience in Practice, a CBF Learning Series. Resilience in Practice is a free webinar series designed to spotlight innovative strategies, local projects, and policy perspectives that support climate adaptation and community resilience across coastal Virginia. Each session brings together experts and practitioners to share insights and foster dialogue around the challenges and opportunities of living with water in a changing climate.



Permitting for the Future: Building the Infrastructure Our Coastlines Need | November 17th 12PM EST | Virtual 


Across New York and New Jersey, communities are investing in port modernization, resilient waterfronts, clean energy infrastructure, and working waterfronts that support local economies. As the demand for these investments grows, so does the need for permitting processes that are efficient, coordinated, and responsive to community and environmental priorities. This webinar is a conversation on the future of permitting. Panelists will discuss how agencies, industry, and communities can work together to reduce unnecessary delays, improve coordination, and accelerate projects that strengthen resilience, support economic opportunity, and enhance the long-term vitality of our waterfronts and maritime economy.










Understanding How Systems of Care Strengthen Urban Climate Adaptation | November 17th 3:00 PM Eastern Time | Virtual 


What makes a city climate-ready? Alongside infrastructure, it’s people caring for the places they call home. From planting trees to beach clean-ups, local stewardship groups play an important, yet often overlooked, role in helping communities become more resilient.


Environmental stewardship groups are vital to thriving, climate-ready communities. Drawing on 20 years of U.S. Forest Service data from the Stewardship Mapping and Assessment Project (STEW-MAP) and social infrastructure research, this panel will examine findings from a recent report by Yale School of the Environment scholars. Panelists will discuss how local care networks build climate resilience, civic participation, and social connection, and how to strengthen these networks for a more resilient future.



How do we pay for coastal resilience infrastructure? | November 19th 2PM-3PM | Virtual 


Join Rebecca Herst, Associate Director and Director of Climate Resilience at the Boston Green Ribbon Commission for an interactive conversation about funding and financing coastal resilience. Rebecca will share information about the Coastal Resilience Financial Blueprint and participants will have an opportunity to provide feedback and input that will help shape the final recommendations.


This seminar is co-sponsored by the Sustainable Solutions Lab (SSL) at UMass Boston and the CANALA Institutes at UMass Boston—the Institute for Asian American Studies, the Institute for New England Native American Studies, the Mauricio Gastón Institute for Latino Community Development and Public Policy, and the William Monroe Trotter Institute for the Study of Black History and Culture.



Preparing the Next Generation of Climate Practitioners: Are Climate Change Programs in Higher Education Meeting Real World Needs? | December 2nd 11:00 am PT/2:00 pm ET​ | Virtual

Native plants are a minority in many garden centers and gardens. As a result, most home gardeners and landscapers predominantly use non-native plants. Unfortunately, this practice is well known to lead to the introduction and propagation of invasive species, which go on to cause harm to surrounding ecosystems. In the context of climate change, status quo garden practices also miss an opportunity to support the translocation of native plants into cooler climates.  This presentation will describe how status quo gardening perpetuates harmful invasions, including an exploration of how state regulations fail to stop the ongoing introduction of well-known invasive plants.  It will also present an alternative, climate-smart native plant gardening, which can potentially improve the persistence of native species and communities into the future.



Living and Working Through Climate Change: Emotional Resilience December 11th 9:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. EST | In-person and Virtual 


Climate adaptation is often discussed through the lenses of projection data, infrastructure planning, policies, and financial risk management. But behind every plan or policy decision are people who must live with the changes already happening around them, as well as the people whose work is focused on preparing communities for what comes next.


As climate impacts become more frequent and harder to ignore, they can also bring anxiety, grief, trauma, uncertainty, and exhaustion. These experiences are felt by people living through floods, extreme heat, displacement, and environmental loss, but also by the practitioners, planners, advocates, researchers, teachers, and community leaders who work on these issues every day.


What does it mean to live and work through climate change? How can we give proper recognition to the individual and collective climate grief and anxiety being experienced by so many people, especially our younger generations? How do we continue to urgently address the climate crisis while supporting practitioners increasingly facing exhaustion and burnout? And what can psychology, community practice, storytelling, and the arts teach us about building connection, hope, and the ability to act?
