Abstract

"I Get It Now": Teaching the Physics of Climate Change Although these resources are incredible, they all explain climate change and how it's taught, rather than provide a structure for students to learn about the science of climate change. Applying Understanding Toward Justice As students finished exploring the scientific principles behind climate change, I began to hear them express climate anxiety. Youth need to understand the science so they can detect climate misinformation and then actively combat climate disinformation, perpetuated by people with extreme power whose near-term profits shrink when we address the climate crisis.
