Take the challenge: 1MReady to make a difference with climate change
On Feb. 2, Binghamton University will host the U.S. launch of the 1MReady campaign
Are you ready to take the Carbon Challenge?
While the realities of climate change are undeniable and global in scope, what we do in our individual lives really does matter. The 1MReady campaign is the first of its kind in the United States and will showcase the individual actions we can take to secure our future climate.
Join Natalie Isaacs, founder of the international organization 1 Million Women, for the national launch of 1MReady Feb. 2 in the Osterhout Concert Theater. Doors open at 2:30 p.m., with tabling from departments and student organizations; the launch event runs from 3 to 4 p.m. Afterward, join Isaacs for the signing of her latest book, Right Here, Right Now: How Women Can Lead the Way in the Climate Emergency.
You’ll also have the chance to meet Binghamton’s student climate ambassadors, who will spread the word about ways to reduce our carbon footprint on campus and beyond.
Open to everyone regardless of gender, the campaign is a cooperative effort between Binghamton University’s Kaschak Institute for Social Justice for Women and Girls, Binghamton Two Degrees, the Sustainable Communities Transdisciplinary Area of Excellence, the Office of Sustainability, the Center for Civic Engagement and the Binghamton University Common Read Experience, along with 1 Million Women from Australia.
With 1MReady, get ready to:
- Start the conversation
- Be a conscious consumer
- Walk the walk
- Renew your energy
- Make a real difference to safeguard our climate
