©2011 ClimateChangeEducation.org: We are a team of teachers, docents, scientists, engineers, electricians, techs, artists, students and parents providing pro bono services for thousands of climate education programs worldwide. While primarily based at science museums and the University of California, we work with hundreds of schools, programs and science institutions acoss the US to strengthen the climate education community. If we should be working with you too, let us know.
