This book is designed as a toolkit. Whether working inside or outside of schools, educators will find the innovative program ideas, games and activities that they need to engage young people ages 6 to 14 in this challenging topic. Some of the activities introduce basic concepts of climate literacy, renewable energy and sustainable transportation. Others help educators promote walking, cycling or taking public transit. Still others provide hands-on experience with sustainable technologies, such as building and testing small solar cars and solar ovens. Finally, there are activities that help young people appreciate the many ways they can reduce their carbon footprint at home. All of the activities found in this book are age-appropriate. Rather than focus on doom and gloom, they highlight the many solutions that individuals, organizations and governments are already implementing. Many are designed to cultivate a sense of wonder about the natural world while introducing basic energy concepts.
