Acterra’s youth education program, You(th) Be the Change (YBtC) is looking for teachers to pilot and/or review and suggest edits on our new curricula. YBtC creates and implements environmental education lesson plans focusing on climate change topics and how they intersect with other environmental and public health topics. You can choose both or one curriculum to pilot. Either (1) Air Quality and Climate Change or (2) Food Systems and Climate Change.
We are looking to complete the review period by the end of July 2025.
