His research focus is on how humans change the environment, how those changes impact their health, wellbeing, and the ecosystems they inhabit, and how to mitigate impacts. He is especially interested in issues of environmental and climate justice: the uneven distribution of positive and negative impacts across populations and landscapes. In a diversity of settings\u2014New England, Mexico, East and West Africa\u2014he works with affected communities, NGOs, governmental agencies, public sector providers, the media, the private sector and donors, applying multi-stakeholder, interdisciplinary capacity-building co-creation within and across sectors: health, energy, water supply &amp; sanitation, food &amp; agriculture, land-use, transportation, urban planning, climate-change adaptation &amp; mitigation, biodiversity conservation &amp; ecosystem stewardship.<\/p>\n<p>Since May 2022, Downs has served as Principal Investigator on the project \u201cCo-creating Research and Education Capacities to Understand, Visualize and Mitigate Climate-Change Impact Cascades and Inequities in Central Mexico\u201d (2023-2026), funded by the <em>National Science Foundation\u2019s<\/em> prestigious <em>Partnerships for International Research and Education Program<\/em> (NSF\/PIRE). The project represents a unique opportunity to tell a fascinating human-environment-technology story with global existential significance.<\/p>\n<p>In January 2024, six Clark students and Downs are heading to Central Mexico to live and work alongside local people for six months &#8211; to better understand how climate change is impacting water, health, livelihoods, food and agriculture, and ecosystems. By pooling diverse types of knowledge and ways of knowing \u2013 Indigenous, experiential, academic\/disciplinary, and professional \u2013 they seek to co-create a <em>Regional Climate Change Atlas<\/em> that maps social, ecological and climate conditions, as well as impacts. They are also committed to revealing who is most impacted and vulnerable, and how to strengthen their capacity to anticipate and respond \u2013 the all-important <em>climate justice<\/em> issue.<\/p>\n<p>They will also be trying to understand how projected changes to weather and climate will manifest in the future, under different scenarios of climate change and development. One scenario \u2013 call it \u201cbusiness-as-usual\u201d \u2013 continues development without regard to climate change, and thus represents the worst-case. The other takes climate change seriously and visions transformations to energy and water systems, and the design of cities to be climate-responsive and sustainable. The project will be simulating these two scenarios using <em>Virtual\/eXtended Reality (V\/XR)<\/em> to raise public awareness of just how much is at stake \u2013 and that a more hopeful future is within reach if we work together to realize Clark\u2019s motto: \u201cChallenge Convention\/Change our World\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The project will also be working to innovate in the <em>public education<\/em> space: the Clark group will be working with faculty and student peers at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) to carry out field research and take courses together. In addition, the Clark-UNAM Team will be collaborating with local middle\/high-school students and teachers to make weather\/climate stations using 3D printers, deploy them, gather data and interpret them. Clark and UNAM signed a <em>Collaboration Convention<\/em> in June 2023 to signal their shared commitment to a new model of long-term collaboration in education, research and advocacy centered on climate change, water, health and social justice.<\/p>\n<p>For more, see: <a href=\"https:\/\/clarknow.clarku.edu\/2022\/12\/08\/water-is-life-three-year-nsf-study-in-mexico-brings-multi-pronged-approach-to-climate-impacts\/\"><em>https:\/\/clarknow.clarku.edu\/2022\/12\/08\/water-is-life-three-year-nsf-study-in-mexico-brings-multi-pronged-approach-to-climate-impacts\/<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p>In summer 2018, Prof. Downs rode his motorcycle 6000 miles to join the\u00a0<em>Grannies Respond Caravan\u00a0<\/em>in protest of draconian family separation policy at the U.S.-Mexico Border.\u00a0 He then raised money to send 7 IDCE students to volunteer helping heroic immigrant and asylum-seeker relief efforts in McAllen, TX.

How do we map and model impact inequities? How do we transform governance and social learning to chart sustainable, socially just, climate-resilient pathways? We will work in a setting powerfully emblematic of the global climate and sustainability challenge - Mexico-Lerma-Cutzamala Hydrological Region (MLCHR) - where a 3-fold expansion of the water supply system for Mexico City is planned by 2050. To respond to the research challenge, our design combines four components in powerful synergy: C1) Co-creation of an open-source GIS\\\/Remote Sensing-based Regional Climate-Change Atlas; C2) Co-creation of a System Dynamics Model (SDM), informed by C1, representing interactions\\\/impacts among climate change, population, urbanization, land-use\\\/land cover change, water, ecosystems, food, health, and livelihoods; C3) Piloting of eXtended Reality (XR) policy analysis, simulating climate-change\\\/development scenarios diverse stakeholders can inhabit virtually, informed by C1 and C2; C4) Integration of research and education such that they reinforce each other. C1 and C2 reveal impact cascades and inequities by recognizing state variables are spatially explicit.
