How can you inspire climate optimism in your students?

Molly Sinnott

So often what we hear about climate change are messages of doom and hopelessness. While there are certainly real reasons for concern, an optimistic outlook that we can solve hard problems is critical to motivating action. In your classroom, how do you talk about climate change in a way that’s both realistic and inspires students to believe there’s actually something they can do about it?

    Hi Molly Sinnott I decided to try something new this year and found a children's picture book to use. I will read it to the students and then I made a Scavenger Hunt  as a fun SEL-ish activity.  I wanted to start with a positive attitude and build on it with the students that we all have the power to make a change!
