The warming of the Arctic. The decline of forests in Australia and America. The impacts of mining in the Amazon. Across the world, our faculty and students research environmental issues like these. Back home on campus, we apply sustainability best practices ranging from recycling to renewable energy.

Clark has a longstanding commitment to the environment and sustainability. We offer undergraduate and graduate programs and courses focused on climate and global change and related environmental issues. And our researchers partner with organizations and communities across the globe to explore the multi-layered impacts of climate change.
