Greetings Educators!
Do you teach about climate change adaptation and mitigation? Do you 
cover sustainability issues? If so, and if you will be attending the AGU 
Fall Meeting, I hope you'll consider submitting an abstract to Session 
ED-07 (link below) to share your experiences, activities, and curriculum 
with others. As the public become more informed about climate change and 
its impacts, they are asking the question, “what can we do about it?” 
Thus, this is a timely discussion and we'd love to have science center 
and museum educators be apart of the discussion!

I hope you can join us. Please feel free to forward this message to 
interested colleagues.
See you at AGU Session ED-07!

Best,
Lisa Gardiner

ED07: Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation Education
Description: This session will highlight recently developed materials to 
educate the public and students about climate change adaptation and 
mitigation. Scientifically credible educational resources are very 
important as information about the effects of global warming is becoming 
more widespread and the public and students are asking the question, 
“What can we do about it?” The public is inundated with advice, 
sometimes conflicting, about what can be done, ranging in scale from 
replacing a light bulb to changing energy infrastructure. Geoscience 
educators have a unique perspective on adaptation and mitigation to 
share with the general public and students.

This session will explore novel projects, curricula, and education 
materials related to climate change adaptation and mitigation strategies 
utilized in formal or informal learning environments. We encourage 
submissions that highlight high quality educational materials and 
strategies that foster a positive attitude about the future.
