Dear Campus Community Here at the University of Oklahoma,
In the busyness of our daily lives, it’s easy to overlook the pressing issues that surround us. Today, I want to draw your attention to a matter of serious importance – climate change. This isn’t just a global crisis; it’s a challenge that directly impacts our campus and our future. I urge you to pause for a moment and consider the serious consequences of climate change on our lives and the imperativeness with which we must act.
Climate change isn’t a distant problem. It’s happening right now and affecting our campus. Unpredictable weather patterns, rising temperatures, and extreme events are becoming more and more common. Our campus is not immune; it’s experiencing the effects of climate change firsthand. From heat waves that make studying in the library unbearable to erratic weather disrupting campus events, the signs are all around us.
The good news is that we, as a campus community here at OU, have the power to make a difference. By raising awareness, advocating for sustainable practices, and holding our institution accountable, we can create meaningful change. Small actions, when multiplied across a community, can have a profound impact.
By actively engaging with the issue of climate change, we not only protect our future but also set an example for other universities to follow. Our campus has a rich history of activism and positive change, so let’s channel that energy into addressing one of the most critical challenges today.
In conclusion, climate change is not just an incredible concept. It’s a reality that demands our attention and action. By coming together as a campus community, we can cultivate change, raise awareness, and create a sustainable future for ourselves and future generations.
