My people-- for the past two years (Spring 2023 and 2024) we have ran a Climate Summit at my school. Students were given the opportunity to pitch their Innovation Pathways and climate problem solving ideas to local politicians and officials. I would like to scale it out to other schools in the greater NY/NJ area.
The basic premise would be a Climate Project civics/social studies take on the ‘science fair.’ Students and educators would have a chance to collaborate while we call on experts to review projects and give talks. The planning process is started yesterday with my administration and I would like to get a rough shape of this during the Fall semester.
Climate Project and Big History Project students could both do this well, Let me know if you’re interested.Tagging some of the homies.
