Yes yes yes we know this semester is crazy! But we just wanted to ask you to save the date<\/em> now for something very interesting next semester. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here's what's up: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of the Worldwide Teach-In on Climate and Justice<\/a>, we invite you to \"Make Climate a Class\" on just one day in the spring semester. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This means you would devote a short portion of your regular class time to a discussion of how your field contributes to the understanding of climate change, climate solutions, or climate justice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It doesn't matter if your class has nothing to do with the climate crisis. In fact, that's so much the better. The idea to reach as many students as possible, all around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Tell students you are taking a short diversion into climate as part of the Worldwide Teach-in. Then for 15 minutes, introduce an example of how your discipline is thinking about climate change. Then have a 15-minute presentation from an alumnus or other professional who is actually working on climate change in your field. Thirty minutes, DONE.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

We'll be posting more information in December. For now, we're just planting the seed. We urge you to save the date<\/em> now. Mark it on your calendar on or around March 29th, 2023<\/strong>. If past experience is any indicator, next semester could be even crazier<\/em>, so any dates not saved may well be lost in the shuffle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PS: We'll be using this hashtag:
