Description: A 350 New Mexico group spent three years writing, modifying and testing a multidisciplinary tool kit for middle school teachers that is specifically focused on New Mexico. Climate Hope covers basic science behind climate change, and its impact on our local communities with a focus on climate injustice. And finally it suggests a wide range of urgently needed actions to both mitigate and adapt to this growing crisis. Everyone concerned about our climate future is invited to learn more about these dynamic tools and how they support meaningful climate literacy.

These activities were classroom and teacher tested. Learn about the history of this project and our classroom experiences. We partnered with Talking Talons to put on the first teacher training workshop.

Find out why this tool kit is needed by middle school teachers and how it has already been tested in Albuquerque Public Schools classrooms. Donate to 350NM to fund teacher stipends for a second training workshop . We are partnering again with Talking Talons to present this teacher training.
