NOAA Climate Stewards Education Project - 1 views

    CSEP provides formal and informal educators working with elementary through university age students with sustained professional development, collaborative tools, and support to build a climate-literate public that is actively engaged in climate stewardship. CSEP also provides support for educators to execute climate stewardship (mitigation or adaptation) projects with their audiences to increase understanding of climate science and practical actions to reduce the impact of climate change. The project is part of NOAA's portfolio of activities to strengthen ocean, climate, and atmospheric science education.

    Join Leo, the young pig who wonders if he is "the one", Chickity, the feathered family farm defender, and Moopheus, the trench-coat-clad cow with a passion for green pastures as they expose the problems with factory farming while making the world safe for sustainable family farms.

Chevron - Energyville - Home - 4 views

    Chevron presents "Energyville", an interactive energy game developed by The Economist Group. The game challenges players to power a virtual city through 2030 and keep the economic, environmental and security impacts low in the choices they make.

If anyone ever tries this..please post updates!
