9 AM – 4 PM CDT
Join the Wisconsin International Resource Consortium for a virtual workshop, Climate Optimism – Finding Creative Solutions and Making Positive Impacts. This workshop will provide new ideas for teaching related to climate change to enable more optimistic approaches in the classroom and mitigate the phenomena of doomscrolling and “climate despair.” Featured speakers will bring international, regional, and local expertise to our exchange to provide attendees with practical classroom activities, tangible examples of success, and suggestions for incorporating climate optimism outside of the science classroom.
Registered attendees will receive a mailing with books and other materials. A registration fee of $10 is requested to cover shipping costs.
