Basic introduction to climate change and basic foundational knowledge of environmental issues. Used to inspire others to take action on environmental issues. Also can be used discuss basics of all environmental topics and as a guide to planning and delivering environmental learning. Can be used with middle school, high school students college and teacher prep programs. I use these rules to guide my environmental learning program and highlight each with environmental grounding assignments, and other environmental projects in year long settings where students develop environmental understanding and responsibility over time.
