Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Climate Change

The Climate Educator Series is here to educate current and future generations about climate change. Join us and learn about the science behind it, its impact on our planet, and what we can do to help. Perfect for teachers, parents, and anyone who wants to make a difference. Sponsors so far include Fridays for Future USA Northern Arizona Climate Change Alliance and Climate Elders of Arizona.

Climate Refugees and Arizona's Future

Climate Change is already affecting human well-being in almost all parts of the Earth and certainly here in Arizona. More minor climate pressures like rising temperatures have already led to large numbers of climate migrants, and larger climate pressures are now also leading to more and more climate refugees in our region. Current pressures and future projections will be discussed.
