“…To overcome this, the next step for learning networks like CRSP could be to review climate-centered rural development models such as ReImagine Appalachia’s Blueprint (2021), Saha et al (2021), and Heartland Fund’s Rural Climate Partnership (2022) and reflect on the differences between policy and politics. Although not climate-focused, Romano and DeVore (2023) could help the network link climate actions with economic and racial justice and build a larger coalition. Scientists, museum educators, and community members can put these models into action by facilitating relational conversations with local leaders, community dialogues (Milligan et al, 2022; The Climate Advocacy Lab, 2022) including making a Futures Banner, and identifying policy leverage points.…”

An urban natural history museum and university partnered with rural conservation organizations to support a climate learning network in southwestern Pennsylvania, a region with a fossil fuels heritage. Network members recognized the urgent need to address climate change at the system scale and wanted to talk about climate action, but they had doubts about what climate actions to take, how much their actions matter (efficacy), and whether it was necessary to talk about climate change directly. Future visioning showed promise as a tool for identifying compelling actions and expanding participants’ climate narratives to embrace systemic climate action.
