Climate Generation's Letter to Climate Change Educators
The school year is officially upon us, which means you’re planning lessons, learning names, and grading papers. And we’re here to help! We just launched our newest free resource, Green Careers for a Changing Climate, a short documentary and discussion guide to introduce your students to the importance of Green STEM Careers as a solution to climate change.
Green STEM careers (from solar and wind installers to environmental lawyers) require STEM competency and contribute to a low carbon economy. Green STEM career opportunities are rapidly increasing and our students need tangible opportunities that will prepare them for the workforce of tomorrow.
