Climate Action and Sustainability
Curriculum Team
About Us:
PCC's Climate Action and Sustainability Plan (CASP) calls for the college to engage in substantial curricular work in order to meet target #2: Ensure all learners understand the key principles of climate action and sustainability, and can apply them in the field in which they are trained.
The CASP curriculum team is a group of PCC faculty and staff who are passionate about climate action and are working together to bring about CAS curricular reform and innovation at PCC. Our goal is to empower our students and our college community to engage with the climate crisis and thrive in our climate future through education and development opportunities.
Join us! We have virtual monthly meetings, with smaller subgroups working on specific goals.
