Title A name given to the resource Minnesota Solar Potential Subject The topic of the resource solar Description An account of the resource Over the last decade, the United States has seen exponential growth in solar energy, according to the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) and the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA). Solar prices have seen a dramatic decline and interest in renewables as a way to curb emissions is increasing among many governments and private entities. Minnesota is one of the many states who have set targets and increased funding for solar projects. The state has set a target of 10% solar by 2030 and is the recipient of a competitive grant from the U.S. Department of Energy titled MN Solar Pathways to assist in reaching that goal.

Title A name given to the resource A Future Heating Plan for Vassar College Subject The topic of the resource Heating Systems Description An account of the resource New York experiences cold winters, and campus buildings generally require heating from October through early May. Heating is a major driver of greenhouse gas emissions at Vassar, so this report is focused on finding ways to decrease the impact of campus heating. It will address four projects that can help Vassar decrease the climate change impact of heating on campus and work towards the 2030 goal. These projects include the installation of radiator covers in steam heated buildings, switching to renewable fuel oil in the campus central plant, installing air source heat pumps in some campus buildings, and investigating the use of hybrid solar panels on the future Athletic Center. These four projects will help Vassar accomplish the goals set out in the Climate Action Plan.

Title A name given to the resource Anticipating the Flood: Framing Priorities of Climate Communication in Copenhagen's Plan for Sea Level Rise Subject The topic of the resource Climate Communication Description An account of the resource My thesis explores, through an analysis of environmental policy frameworks, risk management practices, and the implementation of risk standards and resilience, how Copenhagen, Denmark, is responding to the threats of sea level rise. The thesis analyzes sea level rise impacts and mitigation strategies taken by the city. It further dissects the role of environmental communication in Copenhagen and how actions taken by the government communicate risk and involve citizens in adaptation planning and mitigation strategies. Through the examination of policy and adaptation strategies, I argue that a transition from economic-centered thoughts toward alternative, human-centered discourse is needed to make lasting impacts in sea level rise mitigation.
