Climate Feelings Poster

It can feel overwhelming to think about Climate Change. There are lots of troubling things happening like storms, floods, fires, droughts, and heatwaves. How do you feel about it? What action step would you take? In this activity, children create a climate change poster and put their feelings into action to contribute to positive change.

Goal

To be able to identify and share your emotions about the effects of climate change and identify an action to support change.
