Exploring Climate Change in our Communities: Field Activity

Environmental changes connected to climate change have been observed around the world. We are all eyewitnesses to climate change, and many of these changes can be observed in our communities. We all have a part to play in creating solutions. Sometimes it is hard to see that, especially when we aren’t used to observing and thinking about climate change in our communities. Let’s take time today, right now, to get outside, explore our communities, and connect to the land to reestablish our relationship to the Earth and to one another. We invite you and your students to participate in an independent exercise of self reflection, observation, and writing. We see this activity as an opportunity to connect to your community individually, and also as an activity for place-based, interdisciplinary climate change education with your students. ¿Está buscando este recurso en español?
