| Workshop Full Desc | Educators play a vital role in shaping students' understanding of the major factors that impact their lives. By equipping students with the knowledge and skills to address challenges, develop innovative solutions, and make informed decisions, education becomes a powerful tool for change. The effects of our changing climate touch every one of us, including our students, making climate education more relevant than ever. Teaching about climate change not only prepares students for their futures but also helps them connect their learning to real-world issues, fostering critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Educators can inspire resilience and action by focusing on solutions, innovation, and positive change. Beyond the moral responsibility to prepare students for the future, the NYS educational framework is poised to emphasize climate literacy, making it an essential component of academic success. By integrating climate change across all subjects and grade levels, educators empower students to become informed, responsible, and proactive global citizens. Learn about climate change and how it fits into your curriculum and classroom. |
