Who is a Washington Climate Educator?
All Washington educators are climate educators! Exploring climate literacy and climate change can happen in all classrooms. Climate is not exclusive to science-specific standards. All K–12 educators can integrate locally relevant, community-focused climate literacy to support the diverse learners in their classrooms. This professional learning opportunity is FREE for Washington Educators (including books and Clock Hours)
