Climate Education

Don't miss my We Can Fix It World Cafe teaching activity, which assembles 5 years of climate solutions in an interactive learning activity for students. 

Climate Curriculum Based on IPCC Science

Picture

 Climate education in Canada not giving the full picture

Picture
Our new study in PLOS ONE shows that high school climate education focuses on warming, but not scientific consensus, negative impacts, or solutions. ​

Teacher guide for teaching climate

Seth Wynes has written an evidence-based guide for high school teachers to teach about climate change for "Green Teacher." 

Structure of Sustainability Science Education

Picture
David O'Byrne led a study in Sustainability Science analyzing 54 bachelors' and master's program in sustainability. We found a wide  range of content, with little integration of natural and social sciences. 

High school textbooks miss high-impact climate actions

Picture
Seth Wynes and I identified four high-impact climate actions for individuals in high-emitting countries. High school science textbooks miss them. Study in Environmental Research Letters, see link for more teaching resources.

Youth in Science-Policy 

Michelle Kovacevic led the Youth in Landscapes program to enhance youth capacity. Here's what we found about meaningful youth participation. Study in Elementa.
