We want to find out how people in North Carolina think about climate change and clean energy. To do this, we ask participants to sort statements about topics like protecting communities, using renewable energy, and paying for projects. By looking at how people group these statements, we can see what ideas are important to them. This information will help leaders and communities work together on plans that keep everyone safer and healthier in the face of climate challenges.

The purpose of this research study is to follow up on a survey conducted in Fall of 2023 by the UNC Chapel Hill Institute for the Environment's Outer Banks Field Site student researchers on social perceptions of light pollution in North Carolina's Outer Banks. The results of this survey will be published as a Senior Honors Thesis. The study seeks to inquire about more specific details of the survey's findings, hearing participants' detailed thoughts and opinions to the survey results and light pollution in general along the Outer Banks. These findings could potentially impact the way the Outer Banks manages light pollution in the future.
Mental health care for adolescents at-risk to suicide is often provided in school settings and school professionals play a role in suicide prevention by fostering a sense of connectedness to schools. The practice of social distancing to reduce the spread of COVID-19 has disrupted these school-based mental health services and left adolescents with few opportunities to connect with peers or adults outside their home making them vulnerable to suicide.

The purpose of this study is to explore the experiences of parents and adolescents with suicidal behaviors receiving school-based mental health services and supports during COVID-19. This study aims to provide
