Reading, writing, math, and now climate change education for third graders – what a brilliant initiative! It's heartening to see educators like Kristy Neumeister at Public School 103 in the north Bronx incorporating environmental awareness into their curriculum. The choice of the book 'Rain School' not only expands children's cultural horizons by exploring life in rural Chad but also instills a critical understanding of climate change. The fact that an 8-year-old like Aiden can confidently connect storms and floods to carbon emissions speaks volumes about the potential of early education in shaping informed and environmentally conscious citizens. It's crucial that we equip the next generation with the knowledge and tools to understand and tackle climate change.

It is great to see that some schools are integrating climate discussions and climate science to teach their students and raise awareness among children. I hope this also goes together with discussions on how to act on climate change at their level! It can help create change without making them feel depressed

This is so heartbreaking to see some of the schools in Central Africa being washed away by storms and floods

I love this story it has a great insight on how young generation have passionate about keeping our environment safe and conducive

It's heartening to see educators incorporating discussions on climate change into elementary school curriculum. This approach not only fosters a sense of global citizenship but also empowers children to be proactive stewards of the planet.

Incorporating climate change as a curriculum in New York is a great decision that will aid in impacting students with the right information to fight climate change effects around the globe.

It is amazing that young kids can sit through a session to understand matters of climate change and how it affects their peers in the Central African region.
