DESCRIPTION:There are increasing calls for scientists to join in civil dis
 obedience\, support climate activists in protests\, and other emerging app
 roaches to push for climate action\, both generally and specifically reque
 sted of our institute. Given the lack of clarity regarding the roles we pl
 ay as scientists\, including (but not limited to) how we can distinguish b
 etween private actions and our official roles at the Wegener Center\, and 
 what (if any) institutional guidelines might exist\, we would like to hold
  a special Common Space devoted to discussion of this growing issue. \n\nT
 his will be a unique Common Space session\, in that we will have opening r
 emarks from Douglas Maraun and Ilona Otto\, before opening up the floor fo
 r a broader discussion among the Wegener Center. To hopefully kickstart an
 d frame discussion\, we have created a Miro board (an online whiteboard) w
 here statements and questions can be posted - we have suggested an initial
  question and a few answer categories\, but any additional suggestions are
  welcome.\n\nThe board can be found here: https://miro.com/welcomeonboard/
