Climate Change in the Classroom: Useful tools for educators (and the rest of us)

Abstract: Communicating effectively about climate change is paramount if we hope to realize viable, equitable climate solutions in our lifetime. The Yale Program on Climate Change Communication (YPCCC) has developed a suite of data-based, NGSS-aligned activities that you can use to empower students to become effective climate change communicators. This presentation will give an overview of these activities that are anchored around YPCCC's data, tools, and research.

Bio: After earning her master's in Environmental Conservation Education from NYU, Ruthie began consulting for the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication. She began her career teaching high school science in Maryland and Chicago before transitioning into the nonformal education space. Experiences as the Student Engagement Coordinator at the Garfield Park Conservatory in Chicago as well as a School Programs Educator at the New York Botanical Gardens solidified her passion for and commitment to children's environmental education.
