Your climate solutions journey begins now! 

Climate Solutions 101 is the world’s first major educational effort focused solely on solutions. Rather than rehashing well-known climate challenges,

Filled with the latest need-to-know science and fascinating insights from global leaders in climate policy, research, investment, and beyond, this video series is a brain-shift toward a brighter climate reality.

Climate solutions become attainable with increased access to free, science-based educational resources, elevated public discourse, and tangible examples of real-world action.

Restore our Earth Toolkit
The toolkit provides a daily focus for Climate Education themed "Restore Our Earth"
Explore activities on ecosystem services, the carbon cycle, food sustainability, ecosystem restoration and civic engagement.  Explore ways to learn more about the local impacts of climate change and how we can work together to Restore Our Earth through individual and community civic action.  You will find activities, resources, calls to action, extension suggestions and interdisciplinary opportunities.  All suggestions include three levels (beginner, intermediate and advanced), leading students from awareness to action.  With the help of these toolkits, we can work to build climate and environmental literacy in students all year long!
