Elementary – A Call to Climate Learning
A video message to inspire everyone to learn about climate change. In this video, a boy named Krrish talks to the audience about the importance of climate action. He visits his friends via technology, who are youth activists around the globe, and they share their stories of working towards reversing the effects of climate change. Viewers are taken to Chile, Bali, Nigeria, the Amazon and Zimbabwe while learning that everyone can take part and make a difference. The final message of "learning and understanding are the first steps to action" closes the video. A lesson plan accompanies this video.
Middle Years - Think Big! Collective Action For Climate Change
Featuring real-life examples from around the world, this activity explores the meaning of collective action, how it differs from individual action and asks students to examine which has more impact when trying to take positive action for climate change. Students will create a collective action plan in small groups and share their ideas with the class.
Secondary Years – World Climate Simulation
This resource is a role-playing exercise of the UN climate change negotiations, where students step into the role of delegates to a world climate summit and negotiate an international agreement. Through the simulation, participants explore the necessary speed and level of action that nations must take to address global climate change. The World Climate Simulation game serves as an effective climate communication tool, allowing for self-led learning and an increased potential for climate action.
