Spotlight On: Talking to Kids About Climate Change

Kids today will face the challenges of a warming world head on. They have a right to understand the realities of the climate crisis and what it means for them – and so, parents, guardians, and teachers have a responsibility to provide that knowledge as best they can.

Join our next Spotlight On webinar on November 23 at 1 PM ET to hear four leading experts share their unique insights and some best practices for having meaningful conversations about climate change with kids.

Event speakers include: 

• Dr. Aaron Bernstein, interim director, The Center for Climate, Health, and the Global Environment at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.
• Barbara Martínez-Guerrero, environmental and elementary educator with a focus on sustainability and conservation; executive director, Dream in Green.

• Dr. John Fraser, a psychologist leading Knology, a New York think tank; editor, Curator: The Museum Journal; series editor for Springer Nature’s Psychology and Our Planet.

Together, we can offer kids a foundational knowledge in climate change that will set them up well for future learning – and give them an early passion for protecting our planet.
