Welcome!
This interactive learning resource will be covering many dimensions of climate change, what to expect, and what you can do to help you and your community become more resilient during increasingly unpredictable times. We will start with what climate change means, how it is happening, and what is causing it. Then we will explore how climate change is affecting our earth and some key species that are affected. We will end by diving into what you can be doing in your everyday life to move away from actions and behaviours that are harming our planet and how to reduce your individual impact.
