  • Teaching Climate Science: A Comprehensive Guide for Educators
    1. Start with the basics.

    * What is climate?

    * What are the different components of the climate system?

    * How does the climate system work?

    * What is the difference between weather and climate?

    2. Discuss the evidence for climate change.

    * What are the different lines of evidence that indicate that the climate is changing?

    * How do we know that human activities are the primary cause of climate change?

    * What are the potential impacts of climate change?

    3. Explore the solutions to climate change.

    * What can we do to reduce greenhouse gas emissions?

    * How can we adapt to the impacts of climate change?

    * What are the challenges and opportunities associated with addressing climate change?

    4. Encourage students to take action.

    * What can students do to make a difference on climate change?

    * How can students get involved in climate change activism?
