This document discusses climate change education and resources for teaching about climate change. It describes a planned project that would create an online climate data dashboard for teachers, analyze how climate change can be taught across different subjects, and develop an online teacher training course on teaching climate change. The course would provide suggestions for embedding climate education in various subjects and encouraging student engagement through local issues. The document also reviews literature on effective approaches for climate change education, including incorporating multiple types of knowledge, a justice orientation, and supporting students as agents of change.
