The module, developed for the Tufts University Global Development and Environment Institute, introduces green macroeconomics by viewing the economy as embedded in society and the environment. It employs a pluralist approach—contrasting neoclassical, post-Keynesian, and classical theories—and develops an explicit green macroeconomic model to analyze the shift toward renewable energy.

The Climate Bonds Initiative offers a tiered training structure consisting of Foundation, Deep Dive, and Advanced/Specialist courses focused on GSS+ bonds, transition finance, and adaptation and resilience. These programmes utilize the Climate Bonds Resilience Taxonomy (CBRT) to address seven resilience themes, including infrastructure, food systems, and natural systems. The organization has implemented these trainings globally through partnerships with entities such as the FAO, AUDA-NEPAD, IUCN, and IFC, targeting diverse actors from municipal governments in Southeast Asia to asset managers in Thailand.

The document argues that television meteorologists are uniquely positioned as trusted scientific sources to combat climate misinformation. It introduces 'psychological inoculation'—exposing audiences to the techniques of disinformation to build cognitive resistance—and provides a specific 'Fact-Myth-Fallacy-Fact' structure for debunking. The guide details the FLICC taxonomy (Fake experts, Logical fallacies, Impossible expectations, Cherry picking, and Conspiracy theories) and applies it to common climate myths, such as the claim that the sun causes current warming or that climate models are unreliable.

The document provides a comprehensive guide for the 4C-NPS internship program, which trains students to create climate change communication materials for parks in the Washington, D.C. metro area. It outlines two primary communication heuristics—simplifying messages and promoting pro-environmental behaviors—and details the administrative roles, recruitment processes, and academic syllabus used to manage the program.

The course aims to strengthen public sector capacity to adapt to environmental determinants of health in the Americas. It focuses on transdisciplinary (TD) research, which involves collaborative co-development between researchers, policymakers, and affected communities to create effective public policies. The curriculum consists of five modules covering TD research definitions, knowledge co-production, project design, team management, and grant writing, supplemented by five scientific communication sessions. Participants are expected to dedicate approximately 40 hours to the material and must pass a final assessment with a score of 70% or higher to receive a certificate.
