Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here!
Educators of grades preK-12 can make a pivotal contribution to the success of the global movement for a just and sustainable future. We can do so by giving our students a great education that prepares them to thrive in the challenging world they’re growing into and to shape that world as leaders for climate justice.
Teach for Climate Justice: A Vision for Transforming Education offers a compelling argument for what that education needs to be. It’s not a curriculum. Most needed now is an inspiring vision to inform and guide educators in stepping back, taking a clear look at our predicament, and rethinking how best to serve our students and the planet. You can order a copy of the book here: Teach for Climate Justice.
The aim of the Teach for Climate Justice website is to support the building of a powerful national movement of educators, students, parents, and community members. Join us! The website will offer
an ever-expanding array of teaching activities and resources
tools for organizing support for climate justice education in your school, including a guide for organizing and facilitating Teach for Climate Justice reading circles
a monthly blog
climate education news and reports from the field
notices of workshops and webinars by myself and others
opportunities for you to share your ideas, triumphs, and challenges with a growing network of like-minded educators.
Warmly, Tom Roderick
