Teach for Climate Justice: A Vision for Transforming Education
This timely and uplifting book lays out a compelling vision for preK-12 teaching, learning, and curriculum development to nurture a generation of courageous, informed, nonviolent leaders for climate justice.
Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here!
I’m Tom Roderick, educator, activist, and author of Teach for Climate Justice: A Vision for Transforming Education. At the heart of this book is a powerful truth: educators can make a pivotal contribution to the success of the global movement for a just and sustainable future.
I have created the Teach for Climate Justice Project (T4CJ) to bring the vision of the book to life in classrooms, schools, homes and communities throughout the country. T4CJ aims to support educators who are teaching for climate justice, to inspire and equip many more to join them, and to build a grassroots movement that reimagines education as a force for climate justice. As this initiative develops, check out the featured events and opportunities below or contact us to get involved.
Together, we can seize our power as educators by teaching and organizing for climate justice!
Warmly,
Tom Roderick
