Helping teachers and students figure out how to participate in solutions to climate change, at the level of their schools or in their communities, is a 鈥減roven way to help with climate anxiety,鈥 Fiorile said.&nbsp;</p><p>The educator鈥檚 guide that Chandler built for the climate change and human rights summit draws from well-established and reviewed lesson plans designed to inspire action as well as understanding. They鈥檙e all available for free through <a href="https://cleanet.org/index.html" rel="nofollow">CLEAN, the Climate Literacy and Awareness Network</a>, a nationally renowned online clearinghouse that features more than 800 high-quality climate and energy resources peer-reviewed by both scientists and teachers for accuracy and classroom readiness and provides <a href="https://cleanet.org/clean/literacy/index.html" rel="nofollow">guidance for teachers</a> to bring climate topics into their classrooms.&nbsp;</p><p>Classroom and pre-service teachers are encouraged to apply now to be part of the conference Teacher Workshop, which runs concurrently with the Summit, December 2-4 at 蜜桃传媒破解版下载. These in-person spots are limited to individuals who are engaged and excited about working together to bring human rights-centered climate change education into classrooms. Participants will work in pairs or small groups to develop lesson plans that can be shared widely with others.</p><p>鈥淭eachers right now, especially after COVID, are exhausted,鈥 Chandler said. 鈥淭he idea is for them to not do more, but rather build on content already out there. If we do this well and give educators guides and creative lesson sets, they get a push of energy added to their classrooms, something that鈥檚 fun and new and different.鈥</p><p>Anne Gold, Director of the CIRES Education and Outreach program, said she鈥檚 excited to have her team engaged with the high-profile international conference which is 鈥渞eally focusing the world鈥檚 attention on action and empowerment and youth.鈥 The opportunity to engage with educators, virtually and in person, is powerful, she said: 鈥淲e know that teachers are multipliers in getting these empowering messages out in classrooms and communities across the country.鈥</p><p>Classroom teachers earn one GRTE credit hour for participation; pre-service teachers are offered a $75 stipend.

The commitments will be periodically reviewed and updated to reflect the highest human rights standards and latest scientific information.&nbsp;</p><p>鈥淭he Human Rights Climate Commitments are based on the human rights framework that establishes specific obligations and responsibilities to respect and protect human rights, including in the context of climate change,鈥 said CU Distinguished Professor S. James Anaya, an expert in international law who is the RHRN summit steering committee chair and the former UN special rapporteur on the rights of Indigenous peoples. 鈥淲hat distinguishes the commitments is that multiple sectors are involved. The threat of climate change to our survival requires a concerted effort by all of us.鈥&nbsp;</p><p>At a news conference announcing the commitments, Ian Fry, special rapporteur on the promotion and protection of human rights in the context of climate change, stressed the importance of other sectors of society taking action.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>鈥淭he COP process is broken,鈥 Fry said, calling out the United States and other Group of 20, or G-20 countries, for not financially helping poorer countries that are suffering from the impacts of climate change. 鈥淩ecalcitrant countries like the US continue to undermine the basic human rights affected by climate change. So this is why we need important partnerships like the Right Here Right Now group. We need people to think outside the box who are not bound by autocratic governments like the US. We need collaboration between scientists, educators, cultural and industrial leaders to come together to address climate change. I commend the Right Here Right Now Alliance for its work in bringing us together and bringing together key influencers. Collectively, the alliance represents thousands of educational institutions and other organizations around the globe. We need these institutions to think beyond the bounds of the COP process.鈥</p><p>Anaya painted a picture of what the HRCCs could look like.</p><p>鈥淚magine the impact if national governments across the developed world committed substantial funds for the damages and loss already suffered as a result of climate change, if cities broadly committed to targeted increases in green public transportation to reduce reliance on private vehicles, if business enterprises across sectors committed to science-based carbon emissions reduction targets, and if educational institutions at all levels committed to specific steps to build widespread knowledge about climate change and expertise to address it. These are the kind of proposed specific commitments that will be discussed and put forth at the Boulder summit.鈥</p><p>Anaya noted that multiple stakeholders will develop and revise the commitments, and a preliminary version of the commitments will be announced at the next COP in Dubai.</p><p>Since its launch in fall 2021 at COP26, the Right Here, Right Now Global Climate Alliance has already emerged as the largest public-private partnership addressing climate change as a human rights issue, bringing together human rights experts, scientists, corporate leaders, nongovernmental organizations, academics, advocates and people around the globe in the fight for rights-based climate action to preserve a common future. In addition to the Right Here, Right Now Global Climate Summit and the HRCCs, next year the alliance will introduce global initiatives with partners in sports, music, education and technology.</p><p>The alliance and upcoming summit has garnered support from celebrities that include Leonardo DiCaprio, Quincy Jones, Celine Dion, Cher, Jeff Bridges and Camila Cabello.
