Climate Change Education: Reimagining the Future with Alternative
Forms of Storytelling offers innovative approaches to teaching
about climate change through storytelling forms that appeal to
today's students-climate fiction and protest poetry, horror and
documentary films, video games and social media. The stories are
used as exemplars, from exploring space debris to urban design
planning to fast fashion and provide entry points for investigating
particular aspects of climate science, including the local and
global impacts of a warming planet. Each chapter provides analysis
and strategies for fostering climate (and space) literacy through
knowledge, empathy, and agency. The contributors encourage
educators to answer students' calls for comprehensive K-12 climate
education by aligning pedagogy with real-world challenges to
prepare students who understand the myriad injustices of the
climate crisis and feel empowered to confront them. Contributors
from around the world share their own stories and urge educators to
join the growing, hopeful movement for action, classroom by
classroom.
This uplifting picture book showcases the amazing work our
frontline staff do, the incredible skills they have and the
important equipment they need to save a life, in a unique graphic
novel-inspired non-fiction format. With a foreword by British
celebrity Dr Zoe Williams.
When making decisions, governments can and should strive
consciously to balance the demands of the present with the needs of
future generations. Various advocates for greater governmental
foresight have created new processes or institutions within
existing systems of democratic government. These include long-range
planning departments, futures commissions, requirements for
future-impact statements on proposed legislation, environmental
protection agencies, and offices of technology assessment. But, as
the contributors to this volume demonstrate, much more remains to
be done.
Some of the provocative questions posed by this book include:
What is a public philosophy oriented to the needs of future
generations necessary, and why is it necessary? What are the major
examples of actual experiments in future-oriented governance? What
were their successes and failures, and the reasons for each? And
finally, what are the obstacles to future-oriented governance, and
how might they be overcome? The authors of the essays in this
volume suggest answers based on their extensive experience in
working with governments, trying to help them incorporate
techniques of foresight into their institutions and practices.

This book is about the anatomy of neoliberalism and education from
a Marxist perspective. It is the dialectical materialism of
neoliberal ideas, examining the material conditions of how these
ideas and practices emerged, and under what conditions. Each of
these elements is related to the other and can only be properly
understood as part and parcel of the whole system of capitalism,
which links them together. This book investigates neoliberalism's
political, cultural, and financial tools. It goes deep in the
forces who have supported neoliberalism and how it became ""common
sense"". It explores the imperialist outcomes and the social
devastation it created. It then goes to see how these ideas and
policies have been implemented in education. In short, it is the
materialist conception of the history of the American empire. It
then uses the analytic tools developed through this investigation
to re-read the neoliberal educational reforms.
Introduce students to fundamental economic concepts and help them
understand financial literacy with this book about capital
resources and the economy. Students will learn about different

table of contents, and index all work together to engage readers

colorful book uses primary sources to captivate readers as they
learn social studies topics.
