Students in ENGL 203, in collaboration with SCP Artist-in-Residence Sarah Nelson, will connect human experiences and climate vulnerability data through story and art. Through library research, ethnographies, artist input, subject interviews, and information from the Metropolitan Council’s Climate Vulnerability Assessment, students will explore climate vulnerability in neighborhoods in the Twin Cities, selected from the localized flooding and heat interactive story maps. The Council may use the final illustrations to communicate to their stakeholders the significance and risks of local flooding and extreme heat in urban areas.
Read the final student report delivered to the local gov/community partner.
