Science Alliance: High School Program
Part of Teens
Fall Courses
Class:
Our Planet, Our Voices, Our Future
The existential threat of climate change poses challenges to all of us, but it disproportionately affects some more than others. In this course, participants will look not only at the environmental effects of climate change, but also at the challenges it presents to social equity.
This interdisciplinary course will allow participants to play the role of both environmental policy maker and social activist to understand, communicate, and respond to climate change concerns across New York City. Through the use of data science methodologies, field-based techniques, and collaboration with scientists and policy experts, participants will confront climate change as a multifaceted challenge and drive climate action through information science and policy work.
