This field-based workshop will focus on equitable solutions currently being implemented for the health of Whatcom County watersheds. The Teaching for the Climate Collaborative will guide participants through classroom-ready STEM activities that connect students to the outdoors and illustrate how climate change is affecting different stakeholders and ecosystems. Tribal partners will share their expertise and a variety of take-home resources will set teachers up to integrate workshop learning with the Since Time Immemorial Curriculum.
This workshop is designed to answer the following questions:
What are the effects of climate change on salmon and our watershed?
What are community members, tribes, CBOS, etc. doing about it in Whatcom County?
What are the Indigenous Ways, currently and since time immemorial, to solve these issues?
